Poetry: Observations

by Richie Brisebois

Created on: February 21, 2008

"A Sonnet of Wisdom"

Wisdom is a flower known to grow with time.
It is life experience you'll build up through your days.
It's a soft delicate beauty that begins life blind.
It starts with one defining moment, just one certain play.

You will not find wisdom in any textbook.
You will not learn wisdom in a classroom.
Wisdom finds you, no matter how hard you look.
It's the strength you find when facing a certain doom.

Wisdom will be with you whenever you fall.
To have wisdom is to have a degree in common sense.
It will give you strength when you have none at all.
If the wise ruled the world, it'd bring a change so immense.

A wise man knows wisdom has no end
Once a lesson is learned, why not learn it again?
