Though Time That Rusts Iron

Though time that rusts iron has left you wrinkled and gray
From life you do learn something new every day
We have been learning from life before we learned how to crawl
Though never a new lesson for the one known as know all

Suppose they are happy in their own ignorance and self conceit
Their sort every day i do happen to meet
They never enlighten me in any way
Ignorance can be bliss as the wise one does say

It is true about knowledge that it does not grow on trees
And though in the uni of life there are not any recognized degrees
But those who learn from their life's experiences do have the inner glow
They realize that despite all they have learned of life they have so much to know

That you are an intelligent person may well be so
But that we learn as we live wisdom from long ago
Though the side affects of an inflated ego is an over inflated sense of self esteem
Some never does learn from life it does seem

That from life we never stop learning one has to believe
But if we are not open to learning knowledge we cannot receive
From the book of life we do learn every day
We never stop learning it does seem this way.
