Not with money, nor anything money made
Money bought, money gained, money acquired
Not with wealth as riches of man
Not with castles built, nor sky scrappers hanged
Not with luxury of design wear, Prada not
Coco, Gucci not, nor with Louis Vuitton
Gaga of defined hallow status
To say I am a made man
When the pertinent question is asked
Thus to describe, explain, analyse; sir elaborate
What you are made of in context
Tell me, in a simple four letter word
To define a concept of your being
That would stand the test of time
I would not change course again
This time I shall be firm on this road
Touche. Sound arguments. Keep up the amazing effort.

So very true! The worth of a human is not to be found in wealth and things accumulated. It is in the simple goodness of being!
