Analysis of Ambrose proverbs



Passed down from ancestry
these traditions we hold sacred
The tradition of Family
the joyous moments to the bittersweet incidents.
That makes us wiser and makes us stronger
We called these self assuring truths proverbs
The spiritual guidance to prosperity and health
This is our rendition of that wisdom
Great as the name itself, Ambrose put with proverbs
is a testimony of the trials and test we face daily
providing our own parables to life.
Love, compassion, discipline, patience,
The common factors a family must endure
To survive the quote unquote real world.
