We Do Learn As We Live

The years do pass quickly beyond our physical prime

Yet so much to learn in so little time

And the more we do learn the more we come to realize

That we do know so little this is not a surprise 

From the book of life we do learn every day

That we never stop learning in truth one can say

One fact of our existence and fact never lie

That we learn as we live until the day we do die

Those who believe they know everything must feel lucky indeed

Since of any more knowledge they do not feel in need

But those open to learning knowledge does receive

That we learn as we live should not be hard to believe

We do learn as we live as a truism remain

The meaning in this it's own self does explain.
