This Should Not Be A Surprise Poem by Francis Duggan

Every day of my life i do learn something new
And in this i realize i am not one of a few
From life we do learn something new every day
We never stop learning as the wise one does say
And the more we learn of life the more we come to realize
That we do know so little this is not a surprise
We age rather fast beyond our physical prime
And so much for to learn in so little time
That the one who knows everything was and may never be born is not a lie
Though of life we never stop learning until the day we do die
Of the praises of life i feel happy to sing
Though the accumulation of knowledge it can be a humbling thing
For the more that we learn the more we come to realize
That of life we know little this should not be a surprise.
