An Educated Mind Poem by Cynthia Buhain-baello

An Educated Mind



An educated mind is one that feeds
On that which nourishes, bears fruit.
And in feeding thus produces deeds
Rooted in Wisdom and in Truth.

Its Time is precious, considered gold-
Spent well in values that are treasures,
A cherished legacy that when one is old
He gives to the young, with Good ensured.

An educated mind applies what it learns
For Experience is the genuine Teacher-
Where the Balance of right Decision turns
To make one's Life wonderful and better.

So many teachings sprout and may find
An eventual way to challenge a stand,
But with strength, the educated mind
Can filter which are the Errors at hand.
