Lessons LearnedDo not seek or chose to find,
correction in another’s mind;
When at the heart of all, we know;
enlightenment comes from what we sow.
To criticize or correct ourselves is for the best
since others seldom can surmise the simplest jest.
In deference to said life so roughly hewn
‘tis the...

Lessons Learned Too SoonI sat at your table
I’m sure, I was 5.
The first time I learned
About being alive.
Helicopter landed in
The field, Right out back.
No time to finish eating,
Rushed out, forced to pack.
Stayed with a neighbor
I barely knew
And then...

Lessons LearnedThese are the things that I miss the most
The little things that I never noticed
Wish I could go back just one time
Feel the heartbeat
Of innocence which in a sense is so sublime
It's much easier to just stay cold
You can't find your way back to...

I said shut the door put on listening ears
And Ill tell you a tale of rank shivering fear
One night at midnight I sneaked from my bed
To a neigr knocker fastened...

Without them life would be mundane
Each day brings a gift with it

Come what may,you have to brave it

Take those lessons seriously ,my dear
Lest,you live your...

Lessons Learned HardLessons Learned Hard
by Robert (Bob) Moore
We used to call this weather “brisk”
but now its “bloody cold”
funny how your outlook changes
as your growing old
The cold gets into these old bones
and makes them ache and pain
what I’d give if I could be
back in my youth again
Cold weather...

Lessons Learned In Life - For Contest"You don't learn anything about life in school"
It
is not
your schooling
which is the key
to education,
or the ability
to commit to memory
ten thousand trivialities
through ten years of indoctrination
which will prepare you for the road ahead;
it is in the appreciation
that such knowledge becomes wisdom
when at last you recognise
that life...

Life Lessons LearnedGrief took me by the hand
Lead where I didn't want to go
Straight into the valley of tears
That began to constantly flow
Now that grief had acquainted me
With sorrow in the vale of tears
It seemed at eternal spring of weeping
Was where I would constantly live
Then grief brought...

Forgive but never forget,
Don't sweat the small stuff.
What goes around comes around,
Always think of the big picture.
Lessons Learned
Don't throw stones at glass houses,
The grass isn't always greener.
Appearances are not always what they seem,
A pretty smile is not a welcoming heart.
Lessons Learned
Appreciate the moment,
Love...

Life's Lessons LearnedWhat lessons have I learned from living
both from taking and from giving?
I’m old enough there must be some
and perhaps a memory will come
about some corner that I turned
and found a truth for which I’d yearned.
But had not earned.
I wasn’t one who learned in school
