A Wise Person

Like most i am not growing any wiser as i am only growing old
As is said wisdom cannot be bought or cannot be sold
When it comes to wisdom the wise they are few
You may say to this do tell us what is new
I have lived for sixty seven years but in truth i can say
That a wise person i do not meet every day
But it is a sad thing to come to realize
That the Human World is not or will never be ruled by the wise
Since wise people are born they cannot be made
You never do see them at a war parade
A person who is wise is never a windbag
Of himself or herself a wise one never does brag
A wise person is always a good listener and always discreet
And one every day you are not likely to meet.
