Notes About The Poem

" KNOWLEDGE " MY PHOTO, ©

A Good Education

A good education is...

The one that patiently, tenderly, but persistently plows one's mind, 

To prepare it to receive the seeds of love, virtue, justice, and truth,

Which, with the passing of time, will grow into trees of knowledge,  

That the taste of their fruits would exalt Man and glorify the divine!
