Wisdom Poem by Barry Middleton

Wisdom



to seek within the self
to rectify iniquity
is the path to wisdom

the wise man listens
to his complaints
and learns from pain

he is undisturbed
by criticism
or by foolish prattle

the wise man
does not judge the fool
but pities him

he treats wisdom
as a garden
which must be tended

he gives up darkness
to search for light
and he is unafraid
