Life Taught Him To Be Wise
He loved and left wise
Of a poor child on the street
Begging from a bowl old of rust.
He knelt and drop a coin
Of the last of his day's pay
Tonight there will be no food
For his stomach to sleep.
He went to bed to sleep
Happiness taking over fear
Of a tomorrow that has no promise.
Like a child in sleep he smile so divine
For an act that brought him joy.
Sleep he will be relieved
To know life taught him to be wise.
Of a poor child on the street
Begging from a bowl old of rust.
He knelt and drop a coin
Of the last of his day's pay
Tonight there will be no food
For his stomach to sleep.
He went to bed to sleep
Happiness taking over fear
Of a tomorrow that has no promise.
Like a child in sleep he smile so divine
For an act that brought him joy.
Sleep he will be relieved
To know life taught him to be wise.
