True Riches Poem by Henry Brown

To be or not to be is that all that there is
To have plenty of money is that heavenly bliss

Some of the poorest people are the richest I know
The light of God shines right from their soul

Others with money are so poor indeed
They would not give a penny to someone in need

True wealth does not come from what you possess
But what possesses you I must confess

To put it quite blunt you could have all the worlds wealth
Dyng of disease really needing your health

If thats prosperity please keep it yourself
A true giver to me is the true test of wealth

Not measured by dollars or possessions you see
But by your love for one another I sure you will agree
