Dust
Believing that all men are formed from dustAnd in the end to dust we must return,
What solace might we seek along the way?
What reason might we find or lesson learn?
Are things the goodly measure of a man?
Armani, Mazaratti and Chanel
Were hollow long before our lives began,
And can't be taken with us down to hell!
The instincts of the heart are rarely wrong,
Treat others as we long for them to do.
In peace we can as people get along
If I don't put myself ahead of you.
And in the final day our measure lies
Not in the things we got but what we gave.
The love we give to others never dies
But lingers on long after our cold grave.
