True wealth is,
Not the six figures,
Not the Limousines,
Not the lucrative shares,
True wealth is,
Not shown by the summer expensive holiday,
Not indicated by a trip to the moon,
Not signified by a large expanse of land,
Not revealed by a well furnished house
True wealth,
The influence you have,
Those loyal friends,
Your wonderful neighbours,
The happy family around you,
Numerous pleasant colleagues,
True wealth,
Your peace of mind,
Your soundness of mind,
Your good health,
That strong inner man,
True wealth,
Wisdom and Understanding
Counsel and might,
Knowledge and fear of God.

Poetry: True wealth
by Vea Terrie
They Ride Beside Me in My Car
They ride beside me in my car,

The most annoying
If a diamond knew it's wealth
Or gold how much it was worth
If silver regarded herself
Who would be rich on earth?
Prosperity
by Dianna Hardy
The Princess And The Pauper
He stood there holding out his hands
catching every penny;
She strode past him, shut her purse
by Moeze Lalji

Cannot measure
Statistics only
Catches
Quantitive values
Expressed in monetary
Terms
Qualitative

True wealth is,

Not the Limousines,

True wealth is,
Not shown by the summer
