A Fool

“You will do foolish things, but do them with enthusiasm.” French novelist Sidonie-Gabrielle Colette.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I have been a fool
and a fool I still can be,
Wisdom comes with age –
but is there an age where all
foolishness flees?

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

“With age comes wisdom, but sometimes age comes alone.” attributed to Oscar Wilde.
