Debra Squyres Poet Senryu

Knowledge

Knowledge changes thoughts
Perception is adjusted
Beliefs are transformed

Knowledge is wisdom
Lessons learned through the ages
Falling on deaf ears
 
Knowledge awakes thoughts
New Ideas open the mind
To clearer judgments

Knowledge is creative
Stretching beyond boundaries
Knowing no limits

Knowledge teases thoughts
Information abundant
Right and wrong unclear

Knowledge is danger
In hands of evil doers
Dominant intent

Knowledge transforms thoughts
Choices made to character
Constant changing force
