In halls of learning, textbooks abound,
But life’s vast wisdom, therein’s not found.
Lessons taught by time’s relentless rule,
In the crucible of existence, we truly school.Not penned in pages, nor etched in stone,
Yet vital as air, in life’s marathon.
These truths unspoken, yet deeply felt,
In the symphony of existence, they’re deftly dealt.To navigate storms, and face the unknown,
Resilience, courage, from within are sown.
Perseverance, the unsung hero’s creed,
In adversity’s grasp, it’s the soul’s seed.Empathy’s gentle touch, the world’s silent song,
In understanding, where we all belong.
Compassion’s currency, in a world of strife,
It binds us together, in the tapestry of life.Forgiveness, the healer of wounds so deep,
In its embrace, bitterness finds no keep.
To let go of grudges, and past regrets,
Freedom’s sweet taste, in its release begets.The art of listening, beyond mere words,
To hear the heart’s whispers, like singing birds.
In silence, profound connections are found,
In the spaces between, truth does resound.Courage to dream, and dare to chase,
In passion’s pursuit, find your rightful place.
For in the pursuit of dreams, we find our truth,
And in our authenticity, eternal youth.In the classroom’s shadow, these lessons hide,
Yet in life’s unfolding, they’re our trusted guide.
For wisdom’s classroom has no four walls,
But in the journey of living, it endlessly calls.
