Good morning, everyone!
A Class in Wisdom
Like sand slipping through Fate’s ancient hourglass,
time flows past me at its own speed, never to return.
I have studied much of life along the weary way,
only to discover there is oh so much to learn,
and every bitter-sweet lesson has a price, alas!
Wisdom is the sum of knowledge learned along the way,
from sometimes complex experiences we moved through
And as each moment lived its time and then did pass,
all too oft, that experience was bad, yet we’d still do,
for the moments grand they encompassed, we still will pay.

Bittersweet poem. Takes getting out there for a lot of experience and learning in order to gain wisdom.
Regretfully, too many fools pretend wisdom prematurely.
