Knowledge Poem by Marvin Brato Sr

In the playground at school; a small boy with a paper bag stuffed with sweets The other children never ask for share; the small boy never offered Inside the cavernous mouth; inflamed gums, tiny teeth as black as old grave stones

This is wisdom reduced to a mere few words - but wisdom nevertheless, and thank you for sharing this Marvin in so precise a way that it will likely be remembered too........10 from Fay along with warm wishes from Cornwall U.K.

short and sweet...that's wisdom compressed! Just imagine if all poets kept their best poems to themselves, what our world would be like...

Knowledge if share. O thanks. good one.

So much contained in so few words. Awesome! Knowledge hoarded and hidden is nothing but fools gold.
