A lesson learned
Is a lesson experienced
Reflected upon
Nurtured and respected
Till it reached maturity
With it's contents imploding from All it's orifices
Spreading to every corner of you
A lesson learned
Is a lesson memorized
Understood and done being rejected
Ready to teach
Ready to ride
Right into your core
And grab on
Hold on
For the rest of your life
