Be Happy

*
To 
be
happy
you don't need
necklaces of gold
or all the money in the world,
what you do need though, is Love,Trust, and understanding
those are the things, that can't be bought with all the money in the world
or fifteen tons of gold.
What you can get to be happy is, Friendship,Husbands,Wives,Children,Grand
children, that is love,trust,understanding,a life of morality, GOD!






  WoW thta was tough!

I'm tryin; I'm tryin it all! Yes, with R.R. I have peace, love, and understanding and a wonderful daughter. Hopefully more in the future. And virtues from your God to live by! You're on target. What an inspirational poem. And money does not buy class or happiness. I never met a happy rich person. Thanks - Susan
