Notes About The Poem

Teaching

Would Thou Give a Gift so Fine,
 
                        Not the Grape nor even Wine

                        But that which makes them Join. 

                        Not Rare the Coin,

                        Or Gold from Which Tis Made; 

                        Nor Lemon Tree, or Seed, or Lemonade.

                        But that Which Binds Them Each to Each, 

                        The Power of knowledge,

                        The Wisdom to Teach.
