Love & Wealth! Poem by Tom Zart

Love & Wealth!



A nation's wealth is not it's wheat, oil or gold
But the people who live there both young and old.
Their wealth is a product of man's daily toil
Be they swing wars saber or plow God's soil.

Our riches can certainly grow their own wings
Though it's love that keeps us happy not things.
When we become rich beyond our wildest dreams
That's when Satan always pursues us it seems.

Let no one fall victim to their surplus wealth
For when it happens they'll find they've lost their health.
All wealth either serves or governs its holder
As we who strive wear life's cross on our shoulder.

Life's memories come to those who must, wait
As they pray their blessings won't be too late.
I myself have known love, wealth, war and more
Though soon God's angels shall tap at my door.

God gives us passion to fortify our soul
To make us more fruitful is exactly His goal.
Pearls of goodness help keep life worthwhile
As forgiveness and servitude are put to the trial.
