The Real Wealth

We become aware and care for our health When some illness grips and makes us pale When at ease we least bother about dis-ease And carry ourselves with a baffling unease. It is good health that keeps us moving forward Help pursue our aspirations with ardour worthy And realize dreams by scaling the heights lofty But for health all things achievable stay murky. All luxuries under the Sun become worthless When the physical apparatus becomes useless If one is not fit and healthy, all things collapse Thus it is health, which is the authentic wealth.
