FREEDOM ..by Andrew Vial

The only important things in life
Are free.
A new Maseratti isn’t free
But then it’s not important.

The gifts received from Universal Intelligence – God,
Are free
And one day all these will disappear
Aged, worn out, no longer useful.

My brain was a wonderful birthday present
It came packaged for life,
Connected, and ready for use.

Friendship and love are free,
Intellect too.
The only important things we have
Are free.
