The House of Wisdom

The house of wisdom,
Although from glass is made,
   
Few are those,

Who, its astonishing interior, 
Are able to determine!

I rate this with a top 7, Demi. The wisdom is all yours; it's up to us to realize what the contents are. Sometimes the best messages lie in simplicity; other times we have to look well between the lines. cu // paul
