Though i cannot claim to have uni degrees
I do know that knowledge does not grow on trees
But i learn from life and nature every day
Learn as you live with me it is this way
In Millstreet Town far north of Warrnambool
I was not one of the bright boys of the school
And school a thing i never did enjoy
I was a sort of an anti learning boy
Of life all do have their own stories to tell
And the school of life it has served me quite well
Everyday of the year i do learn something new
But to say this i am not one of a few
To say the school of life is the best school of all
We learn as we live such wise words i recall
We learn from life and from nature till the day we do die
For to say otherwise would be telling a lie
I was not one of the bright boys of the school
Far north of the countryside by Warrnambool
But in the school of life i do learn every day
We never stop learning it does seem this way.

Brought all the memories of School back with a rush and then some, thank you for the memories. My Father once said to me Use your common sense and you will go far This poem brought it all back.
