The Real Value

I saw another man 
Lay his head
On the world's softest bed
The best money can buy

From what I heard this man had wealth
Lived in the biggest house 
Had chefs and maids for days
He had it all I say

Not children though
They were a waste of time
And no wife either
He was lonely, but he was fine

As the night ended
And no one showed
We took his lifeless body out
To let his spirit go

As we lowered his body
I ask you
What do you value more
Money or time

Will you go alone 
Or surrounded by family
With wealth
Or a happy life

Good morning Danielle Taylor, wow, such a nice peom. You know, people tend to think that money solves all things, but they kept on forgetting, that though money can buy a bed, it won't guarantee you a nice sleep, only happiness and rest of mind can do that. And I think family love is more valuable than gold, the feeling of knowing that there is someone out there who loves me more than the imaginable, who sees me as a blood, would definitely give me an unquantifiable peace of mind. Well, please have a pleasant day.
