Study your Shakespeare and Calculus
Physics and History too
Learning and thinking in college days
May be quite important to you
The subjects themselves you may forget
And elude you as time goes by
Still important they are to you
Through reason to analyze
Synthesis, communication and expression
Are valuable qualities to learn
Your successes in the workplace
On all of these factors may turn
While in many venues these may be required
For my living they didn't suffice
I had to look somewhat further
And finally found good advice:
From the life of the mind not all things spring
You've got to look at the whole
If you espouse it's everything
You do so at the expense of your soul
