A Wise Man I’m Not

A wise man I’m not

I’m foolish and foolhardy

When least opportune

This is my mortal nature

That even booksmarts can’t cure

It isn’t so bad–

Really what else do I have

I am who I am

Perfect in spite of the faults

Endowed by my Creator

    “Perfect in spite of faults.”

    Yes, you are perfect to Him because you are His child and He loves you with everything you are.

      I certainly hope so, because I’m getting too old to change. Thank you my friend.

    You are a perfectly wise and not so wise man;)

      Well, I’m probably just a legend in my own mind…a wise guy. :)

        You are certainly ‘legend’ material. ;)

        Awwww shucks! That’s nice even if being a legend is in my own mind. :)

    Very humble poem! You must be a very spiritual man!

      I like to think that I am although not necessarily religious. Thank you my friend.
