Reality Is Hard To Accept... Poem by The Original Tom Maxwell

There are times, we must accept, what life gives us, along the way,
we can always want more, we will all have limitations, during our stay.

Material things, can bring excitement, for a short time,
satisfaction, comes from, those who care about us, and how we treat them,
over time.

A big car or fancy home, can not compare, to the times, we are,
sick, lost, or alone, and those special people, who are always there.

Reality is hard to accept, if we always think, with a greedy mind,
it's easy to wear our bodies down, and not even notice, the signs.

Certain events, give us messages, to guide us the right way, we must,
accept, and follow them, to have peace, and happiness,
for the rest, of our stay.
