At times we wish for it
and at times we don’t.
It is never here
but sometimes we want it to be.
I am not a thing
I am not an imagination
I will never be here
My first is in wilting, but not in firm.
My second is in insult, but not in commend.
My third is in statement, but not in denial.
My fourth is in dissent, but not in agreement.
My fifth is in old, but not in juvenile.
My sixth is in mediocre, but not in excellence.
My whole word accumulates knowledge.
Can you discover the word that this verse describes?
John divorced his wife Marie, yet she won a custody battle over the children. Marie promised him that she would arrange visits between him and the kids. Marie never broke her promise to John, but he never got to see his kids.
