Wisdom's Sage

I’ve lived so long I’m proud to say, At last I know it all. Just ask before you make a move, I’ll save you from a fall. My advice is freely given, So ask me all you will. And listen to my wisdom, To save you from a spill. I know you’re very lucky, To have me for a friend. I shower you with knowledge, And your problems I will mend. There isn’t any other, Who’s as generous as me. In showing everybody, All the things they cannot see. I know the world would benefit, From all my good advice. For I’m a living legend, And I’m really, really nice. No wonder people love me, And worship me all day. But sometimes I really wonder, Why so many stay away. It may be that I’m younger, That those older cannot see. That a very youthful person, Can be quite as smart as me. But if they would only listen, I could help them on their way. For I’m the wisest person, That they’ll meet on any day. Some think I am conceited, But I know those folk are wrong. It’s not my fault I’m perfect, And I’m never, ever wrong! Ivor G Davies
