To Give Away

-  To Give Away. -  
Should someone ever come to me
To speak to me of these
That wisdom comes in little packages
And bad luck comes in threes
Of all the things Ive learnt the most
And still learning every day
That in all my failures featured
Who became my trusted teachers
The very ones that I abhored
Some lessons had to be repeated
Having been forgotten was before

My delight would be to share with one
These precious truths to give away
But there is no one come as yet
Always I'll be hoping 
Someone comes today
