The Greatest Of All Gifts

In life we do have our ups and downs as success through money we pursue
But if you cannot love yourself you cannot love anyone a saying i believe to be true
Money may bring you friends and admirers and you may be seen as a great success
And though money is seen as quite important it cannot buy you happiness
The celebrated and moneyed wealthy of any material things not in need
At what many only can dream of they have managed for to succeed
The people who are known and famous their praises so many do sing
But fame and money does not make one happy and happiness a most important thing
The happy of mind are so lucky to them laughter comes easily
They have the gift that's most important at least that's how it seems to me
Where-ever they are joy is with them in the park or the pub or the street
Their gift in life is to be happy such people a pleasure to meet
They love themselves and they love others what money cannot buy they possess
And that is the greatest of all gifts the thing that's known as happiness.
