Wealth of Forty Years
Life should not be gauged by the years old are we
Or the amount of tears we have shed.
Or should one's life be measured by the people you know
Or how much money around you throw.
Judge our lives by the examples we set
Each and everyday of our lives.
Gauge our worth by the smiles we give freely
And the patience we show sweetly.
Measure our value by the children we raise,
And then as parents, we deserve some praise.....
