Coins of man

COINS OF MAN
Is it important to be so rich,
that friendship is bought
not gained by yourself.

Is it important to be so wealthy,
all can be bought by the nod of your head. 

It is important we see to the truth,
true wealth and riches,
are gained by your thoughts
and your love for each other,
not in the coins of man
