If wealth
was solely measured,
By nature and
each friend...
I never could
stop counting,
My wealth would
have no end.
If only each
song bird that sings,
Seemingly just
for me...
Could add a
bit to my coffer,
How rich then I
would be.
The sparkling waters of a
stream,
That captures my
delight...
And stars like
diamonds on display,
That sparkle in
the night.
The antics of
each animal,
Content to romp
and play...
Would make me
rich beyond belief,
No worries then
to weigh.
My
wealth comes from the friends I
know,
And each one
that I love...
No way to
count riches I have,
My blessings from
above.
The richest
people in this world,
Are those with
lessons learned...
Who
know wealth comes from what is
free,
And not from
money earned.
I'm quite
content to live my life,
Enjoy the
wealth I'm sent...
For no way can I
spend it all,
Then wonder
where it went.
