Don’t you love a happy ending? <br />To hear a special story <br />About folks who had nothing <br />And then felt a sense of glory <br /> <br />Perhaps living in poverty <br />And then after working very hard <br />They attain everything they need <br />A nice house and pretty yard <br /> <br />They can afford to give the ones <br />Who mean the most to them <br />A life that is more comfortable <br />Their world is not so grim <br /> <br />I love to hear the stories of <br />Folks who finally have enough <br />It’s much more than just money <br />It’s a life of security, not ‘stuff’ <br /> <br />I’m sure you know of stories too <br />That unfold with many glitches <br />Those folks who have a wonderful life <br />And have gone from Rags to Riches!<br /><br />Marilyn Lott<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/rags-to-riches/
