Wise Old Companion

Who knows who he is; how old he is?
He is older than me, I know that:
He is an ancient being. I am certain
He must be omnipotent and omnipresent;
He knows all (omniscient).
He is from the age of the dinosaurs— 
Ask him how and when the meteor hit.
I bet he could give you an answer,
He has an answer to everything.
He is older than time itself, now 
I am sure. He observed the first few
Precious seconds of the Universe’s creation;
And, my friend, if you have an unknown ailment,
Go to him and ask. I bet he could cure you
With some antique remedy
He once heard of long, long ago.
