What Makes One A Sage

It's not age

That makes one a sage; 

It's a passion for learning, 

Reflecting and discerning; 

It's knowledge and insight 

That shines the light; 

It's experiences that open eyes, 

Make one empathetic and wise; 

It's honesty and humility, 

And an air of tranquility;

It's the spirit of sharing, 

Compassion and caring, 

Helping day in, day out, 

Realizing what life is about.
