The finest wine is in its aging

From purest grapes on the vine.

Only thoughts that are refined,

Will stand the test of modern time.

 

Bore me not with thoughtless words,

Better they never crossed your mind.

Still the meat that's on the bone,

May be the liking, some will find.

 

Never judge a simple thought,

But let it find the light of day.

One can ponder and not release

A nugget that will save the day.
