This is meaningful and well done. The repeated use of the word, "Rich" works well in this context. I love the title, line above the title, and the beautiful artwork. You make many valid points in this thought-provoking poem. I like how it is centered, it appears to ask to be. I like the alliteration in the line, "be broke, bored..." as well as, the use of the words, "heart" and "health," "family" and "friends." My favorite verse is the first one. I like the phrases which rhyme of, "just beaming in" and "worth the envied win." These are excellent choices for rhymes, and make meaningful issues to ponder. Well written and timely.
Take care, Jesse

Dear Jesse,
Thank you so very much for your time and sharing such a truly
conscientious and introspective range of comments and compliments
on this, I truly appreciate it. You aced it perfectly, and expressed
all your positives and compliments most helpfully and inspiringly.
So sorry for such a long delay in replying, when my Xmas visitors
left, I came down with a really nasty case of the flue, took way
longer to get back on track than ever before. I hope you do not
ever get it, so many viruses out there now.
Thanks again for your thoughtfulness and excellent review.
Best wishes always, Ronni

This is a wonderful poem ofmwjkch I have already taken to hear, dear Ronni. My mind was disturbed today and after I read this, I said, "be quiet and think on things that enrich."
I thank you for this wise words, and gem for my bookcase, Ronni dear.
Sending you my best today as always, and blessings for the new year,
Sally xo

Thanks for the great comments, glad you found a moment
of enriching pause and calming effect, and finding it bookcase
worthy. You are awesome my dear. Appreciated more than
I can ever fully express!
Sorry for the extremely late reply, when my Xmas visitors
finally left, I got bogged down with nasty flue bug! Took way
longer to bounce back....hope you stay well and never get it.
Gratefully and with blessings, Ronni

So beautifully worded! I like the way you begin with a lovely rhyme, and continue with the riches that are of greatest value in life. (I would add a few intangibles of my own, but you have a good start there!)
"Broke, bored and sleepless" are afflictions that many people suffer from today, but you have just given some answers to help keep them at bay. Your last three lines are quite original and it's certainly worth attaining unconventional riches in the pursuit of such dreams.
Your picture is magical, and it almost looks like a little stairway to Heaven.

Thank you for your most perceptive, comprehensive and appreciative
thoughts and comments shared. I am pleased you noted several
key favorite expressions and presentation compliments. A most
uplifting and helpful sharing of essentials and positive aspects.
Sincere apologies for the much too delayed reply, after my
Christmas visitors left, I came down with nasty flu bug! Really
bogged me down. So many viruses out there now.
Belated, but sincerely grateful,
Ronni

You're very welcome, Ronni, and it's never too late. I just got an icky cold out of nowhere -- bad timing for plans that we'd made -- oh, well! Your profile picture is very pretty. Good to hear back from you.
