Why earn money?

Why earn money?

Dollar, ruble, rupee, peso, euro

All money, all honey, all to buy food,dress, shelter,

communication,entertainment , transport  and what not

No money no life here!

Money flows ,changes hands

Making pockets empty ,making some pauper

Flowing to select few, filling their coffers

game of money blessed or cursed by Goddess of money

Goes about all through the life

 A never ending search to buy

Material wealth, pleasure , comfort bay

even a false love, false lover  falling for money,

search ends lovely, just enough, futile ,frustrating,

with scales of success in earning the coveted money

Love, happiness , peace

remain elusive on the money’s buyable list

yet the search goes on to earn just to make a living

till the journey ends, closing the traffic ring

greedy ones pursue to amass oblivious to the end

Earning money to spend on essentials is mundane

Earning to spend on others good cause is noble

Earning by troubling to trouble others is wicked

Stay mundane, stay noble say no to wicked

That way money is well earned ,well spent!
