Apothegm ... Look

Today's word is "apothegm" ... "AP-uh-them" ... a short, pithy, instructive saying; a terse remark or aphorism. (Dictionary.com)

Look
If wisdom you begin to seek,
You'll find it everywhere,
On signs and walls of buildings,
In books, and on the air

The apothegms will stun you,
With their humor and their wit,
You'll collect them in your notebooks,
So many, they won't fit.

You'll pin them on your Pinterest boards,
You'll memorize some too,
Then some will seep right down inside,
And become part of you.
