Array ( [sid] => 72653 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => Pot of Gold [time] => 2004-11-22 09:26:16 [hometext] => I wrote this as a song but it is also a poem. A poem/song about what's more important---Love or money [bodytext] => I wanted all the riches a man could find
So I packed my bags leavin' my past behind
Searching for happiness, but fame would do
Never thought I'd find my fortune-fallin in love with you.

I followed the rainbow to find it's pot of gold
What I found was greater, I now have you to hold

You're the pot of gold at the rainbows end
Far better than the riches I asked God to send
I wanted gold and silver cause I was a greedy man
But the love I found is priceless--
Now I'm the richest in the land.

Love lasts forever, earth's riches fade away
Now I have your love, I thank God every day
I wouldn't trade your love for riches or for fame
Since I found you, my life hasn't been the same

You're the pot of gold at the rainbows end
Far better than the riches I asked God to send
I wanted gold and silver cause I was a greedy man
But the love I found is priceless--
Now I'm the richest in the land.

I recieved riches better than silver or gold
I found true love--I'll forever have you to hold [comments] => 5 [counter] => 217 [topic] => 2 [informant] => mysticpoet [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 5 [ratings] => 1 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => LovePoetry )
