Life's Riches

If you walk among the flowers And never watch them bloom,  Nor stop along the way To inhale their sweet perfume;    If you look upon your child   And never watch him play,  Nor see the many changes, With each new waking day;   If you walk across the land Never looking towards the sky,  Nor gaze upon a sunset, Or the birds that pass you by;    If you walk alone, needing no one,  Passing all others by,  Feeling you should always be strong,   And never even cry;   If you dwell among many Never opening your door,  You've denied yourself of riches, For then you will be poor.   “For every moment you live and regret  You lost a moment of life”
