Seek knowledge from the books, wisdom from wise. Even if old, don’t them despise.
KNOWLEDGE AND WISDOM


Humans are of many kinds;
One’s kind one’s free to choose.
Some have rather prim morals
And some have rather loose.

Some know a thing, some do not.
If they don’t know, they look
Inside that tome of knowledge,
Simply known as a book.

But for some looking up a
Book is too much a task.
Simply like ignorant fools,
Each passer- by they ask.

When a fool meets another,
They counsel each other,
Happy in the thought that they
Have found a true brother.

Lord, take away ignorance,
Make me intelligent.
Please grant that those whom I meet
Be wise, not ignorant.
