Since Compared To Many Poem by Francis Duggan

Since compared to many my troubles seem small
I do not have a reason for worry at all
As the wise one said from worrying nothing to gain
The thought in such wisdom with me does remain
One must feel for the wealthy who are full of worry and stress
Their money has failed to bring them happiness
They suffer of what is known as soul poverty
Of a happier life money no guarantee
Though this in itself does seem puzzling to me
On our journey through life this is how it must be
As money goes i am a long way from being a millionaire
When my bills are paid i have little cash for to spare
Yet compared to many my worries seem small
And life it is quite good to me overall.
