Qoheleth Haiku 2:21


21because sometimes one who has toiled
with wisdom and knowledge and skill
must leave all to be enjoyed by another who did not toil for it.
This also is vanity and a great evil.

When it’s not enough
Our best knowledge and wisdom
We act foolishly

One skilled in the use
Of erudite qualities
May still lack wisdom

Knowledge and wisdom
That fails to meet God’s design
Is the art of fools

No one will enjoy
That for which one did not work
Which does not meet needs

The saying is true
You cannot take it with you
Unless you take love

We will miss the point
If we put not things in place
Our minds remain blunt
