A Perspective On Wealth

3.1.2019

 

He’s got all the money

He will ever need

But he cannot buy love

And now

That is all he needs

 

And she’s got all the love

She will ever need

But she cannot buy a car

And now

Says that’s all she wants

 

So which of the two

Would you rather be?

And of the two

Who has what they need?

 

The hare in your mind races

Towards the money

Towards the man

 

But your tortoise

Takes time to think

Then as fast as he can

 

Makes a tortoise bee-line

Towards the woman

Wants a car

But is otherwise fine

 

Money does not make the man

True love is the better plan

 

Tie the money

To your dreams

And tie the love

With your heart strings

 

Money does not make the man

True love is the better plan

 

You may want a nice car to drive

But don’t need it if love’s the destination

Much better for your health

If you walk and change your path

And change your mental station

 

Your perspective on wealth

 

To have the money for a sweet ride

Or have your honey by your side

The grass seems greener

But I’m not gonna lie

The ride gets awfully lonely

With no honey by your side

 

To be rich is not definitive

But much more a perspective

The message I now try to give

 

A perspective on wealth

 

So though he’s got all the money

He will ever need

But he cannot buy love

 

And she’s got all the love

She will ever need

 

It is she

From my perspective

Is rich beyond his dreams

He has all material things he wants

But she has what he needs

 

Don’t sacrifice the love you need

To chase the things you long in dreams

The hare is alone

It is the tortoise who won

In its life below kings and queens

 

Now the hare sits alone in his ride

Spies the tortoise

With love by his side

 

And the tortoise

So happy

All eyes on his love

Walked on past the hare’s car

While giving thanks to above

 

He had not even noticed

The car he walked past

Blinded by new perspective

Bathed in the light it had cast

 

Money does not make the man

True love is the better plan

 

To be rich is not definitive

But much more a perspective

The message I now try to give

 

A perspective on wealth
