He taught me to take my socks off before I go to sleep
He taught me to take my socks off before I go to sleep
He taught me how to watch a football game
He taught me how to sleep in the same bed as someone else
He taught me how to hold my alcohol
Ok, fine, that’s a lie, but he did up my tolerance level
He taught me many things.
But the most important one is about the socks
If you take your socks off before sleeping
And put them in the hamper right away
You can put a fresh pair on the next day
I’ve worn socks two, three days in a row
And they always made my step a little heavier
Why carry dirt around with you, when you don’t have to?
Granted he has not experienced the benefits
Of the lesson he unconsciously taught me
But
He taught me to take my socks off before I go to sleep

And there is yet more that he may teach you.
Wow...thanks zenmaster.
Having read the poem...
Previous snarky comment aside, Anon up there is probably right. It's amazing the things that come into play later that seem so trivial at the time. You may just learn more.
I'm someone who doesn't follow his own advice, in that I have a long memory and wear my heart on my sleeve. It's good that you, at least, have learned your lesson from him.
