All You Need - Sonnet

by Walter   May 5, 2023


A family rich though income is poor
And you would then wonder how this could be
When they make do and don't need anymore
They learnt money will not make you happy

A humble home where all their needs are met
They are blessed to have a place where they sleep
Warmth and shelter when outside's cold and wet
They do not see their lives as living cheap

When you don't own much you'll appreciate
Just all the basics you'll need to survive
Often you don't want a lot on your plate
When you are thankful for life you'll still thrive

When learning to live so you don't demand
But value the goods within reach of hand
