#2825-Abundance

Today I’d like to be,

A bright shining lamp,

Lighting the way,

For those walking by.

Now in society,

I no longer roam,

In search of dreams,

On every corner sold.

It was those bargains,

I simply thought,

Where happiness waited,

To readily be bought.

Those were the curves,

In the road I chose,

Where life-lessons,

For free were sold.

Now looking back,

I can see,

Were it not for those,

Hollow pointless dreams,

I’d still be searching,

For a pot of gold,

To carry on my shoulders,

Wherever I go.
