Life's Lessons Learned
What lessons have I learned from living
both from taking and from giving?
I’m old enough there must be some
and perhaps a memory will come
about some corner that I turned
and found a truth for which I’d yearned.
But had not earned.
I wasn’t one who learned in school
how to be the least bit cool
and it might probably be best
if I fell in love a little less.
One thing I’ve learned, and should admit,
is that I’m dumb as dead dog ****.
And quite content with it.
