\nI have two intimate friends:
\nThe red light
\nAnd
\nThe green light. <\/p>\n

The red light warns me
\nAnd cautions me
\nAnd finally commands,
\n“Stop!”<\/p>\n

The green light inspires me
\nAnd encourages me
\nAnd finally whispers,
\n“Start!”<\/p>\n

My red friend
\nTeaches me patience.
\nMy green friend
\nTeaches me dynamism.<\/p>\n

My red friend tells me
\nMy life is precious.
\nMy green friend tells me
\nMy goal is precious.\n<\/p>\n

My red friend
\nPerfects my will.
\nMy green friend
\nFulfils my dream.<\/p>\n
