Does this poem help explain why I don't "whine"?

TIME AND WEALTH

The sun is gone from the sky,

Dark clouds begin to cry.

Alone with my dog, here I sit

Thinking amongst the quiet.

It seems like a short time ago

That children's laughter filled the air.

Grown and gone. Where did the time go?

You ask me and I reply " I know not where".

God has been good to me throught my life,

Having wonderful children and a loving wife.

The children now have families of their own,

My wife's life cut short - God called her home.

I am not bitter, nor am I sad

When I think about the good life I've had,

Far outweigh the times of bad.

Great children and grandchildren, good health,

I surely am "A man of wealth".
