Your Greatest Gift

It Does not matter of your material or financial success The gift of life the greatest gift that you do possess And this applies to everyone as well as you and i It is true we do lose everything on the day we die The president and monarch may know of wealth and fame But they share one thing in common with those with little to their name In that the gift of life is their greatest gift and this to all apply If you tell me of a greater gift the truth you do deny Time has been catching up on me and leaves me feeling and looking old But i would not change my gift of life for all of the World's gold For only the living can enjoy material things gold of no use to the dead And though you may be poor with your gift of life you can look forward to better times ahead Your gift of life is your greatest gift and it does seem true to say That all of us lose everything on our lives final day.
