They didn’t know that they were poor,
A sister and two brothers,
They had a place that they called home,
A loving father, and a loving mother.
And every day, they played away,
Spent hours in the sun,
And every night, they said their prayers,
When the day was finally done.
Their lives weren’t filled with toys and such,
They knew not, what they were,
The house, the barn, the yard, the creek,
Was all that they’d prefer.
Raised on love and kindness too,
Forgiveness from within,
The joys of being family,
They did not know of sin,
A world more perfect than most know,
For it’s not what you own,
It’s living life in peace and love,
And not feeling alone.
If all the world could know this joy,
Contentment with their space,
That love and peace would make this world,
A much more, better place.
