Wisdom

by Rachel RTVW   Mar 25, 2007


With age and experience lessons are learned,
In the moral of the story knowledge is earned.
Some correlate wisdom to years spent in school,
Don't you know the older, the wiser's the rule ?

Each day you gain insight, you learn something new.
Will practice make perfect in all that you do?
Did your parents do well with the values they taught?
Were you told that friendship nor love can be bought?

Have you learned not to be bothered by the little things?
True love can be priceless with the joy that it brings.
Cherish each day to the fullest, have fun, live it up,
See it half full when emptiness, appears in your cup.

If you have a positive attitude, it will carry you through,
Negativity sets you up for failure, it's true......
Remember my words when you have a bad day,
When you have nothing nice, than nothing you say.

Treat others how you'd like to be treated if good,
Take pride in knowing you've done all that you could.
Don't know what you've got till it's gone in the end.
Be wise, take to heart, this message I send.

    Another poem well done but onm the line

    "Cherish each day to the fullest, have fun, live it up," i stuttered through it, if feels uncompleted to me.

    but by the next line i was back into the zone and everything flowed beautifully from there. good work

    Hi, really enjoyed reading your writing, but true older and wiser rule and I only wished that I had parents to bring me up and teach me right from wrong,like in your poem on these lines. Did your parents do well with the values they taught?
    Did they tell you friendship nor love can be bought? thanks for the great poem very nice.
