The Professor and the Poet
Side by side, each deep in thought
Lost in their worlds
The Professor loved the beauty of truth
And the Poet the truth of beauty
They spoke of the world and its ways
The many mysteries that lay within
They laughed and cried and shared
Of their lives, their thoughts and kin
And as their days came to a close
As the sun began to set
The Professor and the Poet realised
They were not so different yet
For though their paths in life did differ
Their hearts did beat together
The love of knowledge and beauty
United them forever
