Love, Wealth & More? Poem by Tom Zart

Love, Wealth & More?

Rating: 5.0


Life's treasures come to any who wait
As they pray their blessings won't be too late.
Myself I've known love, wealth and more
Though soon God's angels shall tap at my door.

Some gain wisdom by their own blunders
While too many achieve by greed and conceit.
Far greater is wealth achieved by the truth
Than any revenues attained by deceit.

What does it mean to be rich toward God
Remaining mindful of the plight of the lost
God measures wealth by our love for others
And the wrongs we repeat regardless the cost.

In life, we fail despite prestige
If no one cries at our passing.
We must strive to become irreplaceable
So the memory of our love is lasting.

THANK YOU FOR WHO YOU ARE IN YOUR HEART?
