Wisdom Walks Poem by Sean Green

Wisdom Walks



Wisdom walks the path of folly
the latter a price to be paid
this is how the foolish mortals
approach the realm of perfect bliss

the sins were many in the past
remnants of the human life
embraced in lieu of what could be
because of ignorance we're deceived

few are worthy to be damned
for small trips outside of bounds
if the gods were more kind
we'd really know right from wrong

by a thought or deed's transgress
the lines are crossed on the page
stating what could never be
in this world of misery

still the balance can be found
if the ear is opened wide
within the heart that would apply
lessons learned from folly's plight.
