Success Is Not Money

The speaker had said

“success is not money”

and for some strange reason

the hearers thought this was funny

Then his words went unheard

future sadness he could have rid

and they were missing this message

as ignore him they did

You'll find success in your joy

which money can't buy

it's found deep in your heart

like you were a boy

The days filled with fun

the games played with your friends

I know, I know

that's not a means to an end

Yes I know we must work

to provide for our needs

but there's no happiness in it

when it's to further our greed

When there's never enough

and we always want more

we're not satisfied

and behind in lifes score

Thing is life is for living

enjoying our days

however they come

in so many strange ways

Whether with family or friends

or at the job site

it's happiness that's important

you must know this to be right

Though the statements I made

may seem kind of funny

the truth is success is much more

than accumulated money
