To be among the wise of Time,
we have to learn to see,
For wisdom's use helps hearts to prime,
the skill to know and be!

When searching through great books we find,
much knowledge we can hold,
But knowledge won't help us be kind,
nor help in causes bold!

It's Wisdom that can use the known,
to help our world improve,
But Knowledge merely shows we've grown,
and helped our minds to move!

So, in the body of a soul,
the Knowledge is the bones,
And Wisdom's muscles keep us whole,
through exercise and tone!
