Broken wishdom

Dirk Myburgh 2005 (Upington)



Broken wisdom
Piece of Paper
I still choose to wonder and aim forward
To strive and embrace wisdom, learn to
attend it before my teenage years
come.
So to give me a higher life with bliss
and goodness.
To teach me and guide my
footsteps to an endless joy.
If I could a would embrace wisdom
so that a will not reach to be a fool one day,
but all a can do is wait and learn wisdom as growing
up.
But still Dr George Crane said that act the
way you like to be and soon you will be
the way you act.
