Caution on Greed

Enough is enough,

We say this when annoyed.

Do we say the same of riches,

Or enough is not enough?

Put Greed and Content,

In a boxing ring,

And what would we get,

Pray tell?

Well-

Greed will box Content out flat most,

That's what.

 

 

If I put a table full of dishes,

You may become a glutton,

Obese-

And perhaps die from heart disease.

The same can be said of greed in riches.

Too much or too little?

Both are evil-doers.

Use money well,

And all will be well,

And your life grandly tell,

In life's fickle foibles.
