Wisdom Poem by devon da poet

Wisdom



We were all born foolish and dumb
Then we started speaking syllables bit by bit
Then finally words and then sentences.
But most of our utterance were influenced by that of which we heard and listened.
In other words, the home in which we were brought up in.
If your mother and father were highly inclined then it's most likely you'll also be of same stature.
But does it make you of higher IQ than a man who was brought up in a home filled with null skulls?
You might say for certain.
But what if that man whom did lived in the home of low stature were to be placed into a more highly intellectual oriented environment, what would you reckon?
I'll say that his way of thinking and his cognitive capacity with improve.
It is wisdom not judge a man by his current position.
Society will blatantly accept a man formally dressed over another in rugged attire, even though the man in rugged clothing has a higher intellect quantity or mannerism.
Society will also accept a woman with long hair and a beautiful body over one with pure heart and virtue.
It is wisdom not to be stereotype based on false premise
If the president presents a speech, it will in most instances be preferred over that of the voice of a normal citizen, even if the president's speech has no real substance, and on the other hand, the normal citizen has physical data to prove his/ her claim.
A sixteen year old girl has more prestige than a sixteen year old boy but a forty year old man has more prestige than a forty year old woman.
Why is that so? At sixteen a girl is at her peak in beauty and attractiveness but a typical guy is successful not until he is forty. With that understanding, as parents how will you lecture you kids on dating?
Having multiple partners in dating will make you a whole lot more flexible but does wisdom despise reputation?
A mother who makes all her teenage daughters decisions will one day pass away and her teenage daughter will grow into an indecisive adult.
But will you let you teenage daughter do as she please?
Having sexual intercourse at a young age will give you more experience but is your life a job application? Wisdom teaches you to wait on the right person.
A labourer at minor age didn't went through the hardship of studying nights upon nights unlike a lawyer who did, but twenty years later the labourer would work ten times as hard as the lawyer would have to. Is there an easy way out in life?
Wisdom teaches that the race is not for the swiftest.
If the weather is sunny will you carry an umbrella though there are chances that rain may still pour later on?
Hardly anyone would, but everyone will carry around a cellphone even if they're not expecting any calls, it's the same in the perspective of passivity.
A lot of intellectual people still haven't yet accepted God as Jesus so are they any wiser than the illiterates who have? What's true wisdom?
