My Life

My Life
When I go, don't cry for me,
My life is as it was meant to be.
I've touched many hearts, found on the 
Rocky roads of life, where despair was
Followed by hope, hunger soon forgotten,
New avenues opened.
I touched many hearts,many touched me.
Nature is my friend, my guidance,
My nourishment.
I found strength when I feared weakness,
I found friends when I feared loneliness.
I realized monetary riches will not be
Mine in this lifetime.
I discovered satisfaction and love had
Made me richer than money ever could!
When I go, don't cry for me,
Life is as it was meant to be.
