LIFE, I have made a book of my mistakes; Regret hath clasped and Sin hath blotted it And therein are my blunders clearly writ. And therein do I find much knowledge hid -- Wisdom that layeth hold of every sense With the strong grasp of grim experience. And would you study with me? Nay, my friend, Not one may read and benefit thereby In all the world, not one -- save only I. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...IN MICHAEL ROBINS?ÇÖS CLASS MINUS ONE by HICOK.
