Money and Success
How much money will be needed
For you to think you've succeeded?
A million, two, three or four?
Or does that still leave you feeling poor?
What'll you do to gain that wealth?
Be open, honest or use stealth?
And what'll you give for this take?
Family, friends, birthday cake?
Think hard and long. It's only once around.
So be sure you don't end up unfound.
Unfound by self and those dear.
You and your funds won't long be here.
While you toil to make your mark,
In life's flight please disembark
To stop and question what you've been told?
Your real assets spring not from gold.
Think first of love, joy and friends.
Then when your sojourn finally ends,
Success will be your guarantee
Whatever money there may be!
