Wealth as for Me



There are reasons why I am not
wealthy monetarily. And at my
matured age of seventy, things
such as this are highly unlikely

to change. Lazy? Oh, there has
been a liberal measure of that
along the way. Time off with
regularity, I believe, is the best

pay for the soul most any day.
Indeed, there are myriad reasons
I am not wealthy monetarily.
Mostly, I suppose, it is because

I would rather just sit where it
seems comfortablly appropriate
for me to be. At times, I may
enjoy striking up a conversation

with you, telling you my story or
listening while you tell me yours.
That pretty much sums it up—
As I see it, a fair trade between

you and me given and received,
no charge, absolutely free. Remind
me next time, and I’ll tell you about
my inherant proclivity for just being
outright lazy on my own.
