MY WEALTH by GEORGIA DAY SHERWOOD

First Line: I HAVE NOT GATHERED ANY GOLD
Last Line: MY GREATEST WEALTH TO BE.
Subject(s): WEALTH; RICHES; FORTUNES;

I have not gathered any gold
Along life's great highway;
Or jewels rare of costly worth
For raiment's bright array.

I've gathered bits of loveliness
From sunset, flower and tree,
And placed them in my lonely heart,
My greatest wealth to be.
