If I Had no place to lay my head
at night while I sleep
as long as I had you
I wouldn't care.
If I Had no food to eat
as long as I had you
I would be filled
with your love
and I know you would reassure
me with your touch.
If I had no eyes to see
I know you would open them
to all the beauty that surrounds me.
If I had no ears to hear
I know I would still hear you
saying my name.
The riches of life
are not in money
the riches of life
are in being with you.
If I had no voice
I know that you would say what
I'm feeling I LOVE YOU.

Hi Rosebud1229....

     You expressed a lot of my deep inner feelings in this one.......money does not always give us what we need the most!!  A beautiful job of writing here, and most refreshing to my eyes!!


Today is a gift....
That is why they call it
'the Present'!
