Are you wise enough to know the meaning of the last three lines? <br /> <br />Wisdom <br />by Barbara Lynn Terry <br /> <br />Wisdom is what we have <br /> <br />when we think before we say <br /> <br />things that make no sense. <br /> <br />Wisdom is the truth that <br /> <br />clears our difficult path <br /> <br />so we can see clearly. <br /> <br />Wisdom are the words of the sage, <br /> <br />spoken without rage <br /> <br />for those who wish to learn. <br /> <br />But wise is the one who speaks <br /> <br />only when they have the intelligence <br /> <br />to remain silent.<br /><br />Barbara Lynn Terry<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/wisdom-36/
