Poetry: Eternal Learning

Out of the Sandbox October 3, 2017 , by

By Matthew Philbrook

 

If we gained life eternal

What kind of world would be?

It would be good for all to care

To work together, making everything better

To pass on to the children the collected knowledge

 

Would wisdom fill our journal?

Could mercy and love be all we see?

Misery and crime have gone elsewhere

To each other, we decide to be a debtor

Everyone’s true inner spirit we acknowledge

 

Can the best of mankind be external?

To help each other we all agree

That good news would not be rare

True kindness the pacesetter

And mankind’s enrichment taught in every college.
