Weight of Life

Oh how I think of the meals you have missed, so your kids could sit proud at the table. The holes in your clothes and sweat on your brow, so we could stand tall in our name. I've heard all the stories of you back in your day, and the doubt that circled your heart. When it came time to settle and raise up your kids, you're ten times the man you once knew. To show us the value in everyday life is a lesson that gold could not buy. You will leave me with more than a billionaire's son as we, too, are rich in our own way.
