All In My Hands I Hold

All in my hands I hold 
Money, silver, Jewell , and gold
All those things that man can love
I still have more though some I sold

All in my hands I hold
Brackets and jackets to drive all the cold
To keep me warm and act like a stove
That when you talk all I do is to nod

 All in my hands I hold
All great names in the world I’m called
Angels can know who I am from above
And tell my deeds to the might lord

All in my hands I hold
Stories I made but some I was told
Tales still fly in my head like a dove
And some still hang in my brain they’re stored

All in my hands I hold
Everything in the world to you I showed
All have
But still I’m bored.

This is a beautiful piece, Walani. I couldn't help nut smile lightly at the last line "...But still I’m bored"
