More On Noticing Everbody's Yearnings

If you look at the world

It's like one big dime

Every thing has a price

Even time

Cause time is gold

And gold is monetary

But life is bounded by time

So is it bounded by money?

 

But avidity aside, we will see

That the best things in life are for free

We breathe, and yet don't pay

We grasp the world's great display

We feel loved and

Cared for fancy-free

The world was made free

For you and me

 

I'm not saying we disregard money

for it is essential to our life

It could be of use

to deflect our daily strife

Now it's wise to procure some money

For it can sustain our daily requisite

But with or without money

You can always choose to be happy
