Handshake
The bright, innocent liveliness of knowledge
with the gentle flexibility of tender wisdom,
it would be good to hang them
on one narrow corner of an apple tree.
Knowledge, flapping about without much sense, wakes naïve wisdom,
and steady wisdom, in turn, widens the generosity of knowledge.
