Knowledge

Wisdom knows no magic bullet,

Instant access or easy trail.

It grows along a thorny path

With walls and fences to encroach.

 

And knowledge breeds the building blocks

That rouse the march to clarity, and

Experience, the bitter pill, is

Sage savant beyond reproach.

 

With starts and stops and two treads back

On stairs and steps and stumbling blocks

To leap and learn through trial and fault

And make the puzzle pieces fit.

 

Growing exponentially to

Feed the need of will and want,

Knowledge is a paladin

Whose universe is infinite.

 

Knowledge waxes on through time

Where insight marries reason,

And we are mete more than fair share

To learn in our brief season.
