This is Wealth

 I don't care if I'm poor in a monetary sense..

been poor all my life...

it's nothing new. 

But never have I been as rich as I am when writing a poem, 

guiding a wee hand through an arts n craft, 

or listening to my love in the next room strumming a tune and singing. 

These are the things dreams and happiness are made of. 

These are what life is REALLY about. 

This is wealth."
