Common sense is not a gift, Without it people seem to drift. By paying attention it is acquired. Then you can know what has transpired.
It is so easy to watch and learn, Then you will know how to discern. Knowledge can be gained by reading a book; Some are not willing to take a look
There are those that can't read or write, They can learn with or without eye sight. To not want to learn could mean you are lazy, Either that or your just plain crazy.
Wisdom is something that can't be bought, It is from God and it must be sought. Wisdom is used for applying your knowledge. Having wisdom in life gives you an edge.
Ignorance in life is so very rough. It causes the simple things to be tough. Not learning is mentally not growing, All of your days will be tougher not knowing.
For what we don't know we always pay. We seek help from others all through the day. The wise all know there is a better way, You simply listen to what God has to say.

Loved the fourth stanza especially. How true the statement, though humanity seeks wisdom through inanimate rather from the supreme source the creator. Good write.
