Wisdom


Wisdom

Wisdom is a priceless jewel

A key to every gate

It paves the way to highest mounts

And turns the hand of fate

 

Schoolboys are a silly bunch

They shirk their work and bolt then lunch

I have to stop and look again

When I think they soon be men

 

School girls are quite silly too

The things they say! The things they do!

Little it surprises me

That they soon will women be
