Wings to fly

He did not own a car
But all day drove his feet
He did not have a degree
But the wisest I've ever seen

He says
We do not need to cry
When moments pass away
I may only be a man
But I know how to smile
Not when one is falling
But to bring him high
Life is what you are given
All will not say aye
They will move away
But you will still see light
Help 'em my child
For tomorrow you may die

He did not have wings to fly
But he was merry as sky
