Fountain of Wisdom

There's a fountain of wisdom,
In a far away land,
Of an unknown kingdom,
Buried deep in sand.

A long journey awaits,
For those who dare,
Filled full of baits,
For people not so bare.

A vast ocean of knowledge lies,
To them who managed to reach,
A lot that makes you dies,
Mind becomes free, ready to breach.

There you'll learn the ultimate lesson,
One that'll make you great,
For it's you that is special, son,
Since your life's no one's to rate.
