What is my name?

my early years,

were such that gave concern to parents,

when i was born,

they were faced with what name i should bear.

Mother gave birth to me,

with so much grown,

turned joy immediately i came out,

she heard my cry and smiled.

We were discharged to head home,

daddy came from his tarvel,

beaming with smile and joy,

he said to me, oh!,

son, first son,

you are welcome! 

he looks like me, 

isnt that true? asked he,

mother: he is fair and handsome.

i felt it was my name, handsome!

i smiled at them.

I arrived home with my parents,

they prayed, holding their hands in agreement.

Daddy suggested names,

mother did too,

one, two names was given me.

But i they did not know,

they forgot to ask me,

my name.

i grew up but with my names in my heart,

i behaved my names with my life style,

the way i spoke marvelled them,

were astonished how i lived among comerades,

wondered at my performance at school.

Tell me your names,

guess what they are,

am not good at guessing, but you can try,

if cannot i will tell you,

i am a champion, i am a hero,

i am a success, i am a sign and wonder,

i am a mountain, i am an ocean,

i am a mystery.

i am WISDOM.

When power leads man towards arrogance, poetry reminds him of his limitations. When power narrows the area of man's concern, poetry reminds him of the richness and diversity of existence. When power corrupts, poetry cleanses.

John F. Kennedy (1917-1963) Thirty-fifth President of the USA
