Worth

Words By Yewande Akinse

If worth is counted with paper and scales

so what then is the value of virtue?

is its relevance weighed by many sales

or trade in market for trinkets in lieu

is it weighed like gold to be proven true

or stored in carats or in currency

in coins, in fiat or in economy.

whole of man is his legacy and tale

the true worth of man is beyond money

know this, not all things in life are for sale
