I'm sad to say,
I'm sorry to report
But many new monks
seem of a sad sort.
They don't read the docs,
they don't read the FAQs.
Just expecting prompt answers
dropped in their laps.
You think they'll become saints;
your hope looks misplaced.
More likely the slackers may drive off
the current lot, post-haste.

Unless, in your stocking, you want coal,
You knowledge seekers must know your role.
Read before you post!
That's what matters most.
It's the journey that matters, not the goal.

Wouldn't it just be a slight matter of rewrite, to change it from letter to poem? Not trying to steal your poem, man. :-)
To all the saints, I pray
to provide their sage advice.
for with their saintly help,
I soon rise into their ranks.

foreach $saint (@saints) {
$self->pray($saint);
push @knowledge, $saint->advice();
$rank++ for $saint->help();
}
