The Green Dream: Exploring Our Obsession with Money in Poetry

An energetic poem about Money.

By Gopinath.RPublished 3 years ago 1 min read

Money, the currency of our lives,

It opens doors, and it causes strife,

A symbol of power and success,

Yet for some, it brings only distress.

~~~~~

For some, money is like a warm embrace,

It provides security and a happy face,

It fills their hearts with joy and pleasure,

And propels them forward at a rapid measure.

~~~~~

But others, they see money as a curse,

Their lives consumed by greed and thirst,

They forget about the beauty of life,

And instead become entrapped in strife.

~~~~~

Money can build and money can break,

It can inspire some, and some it can forsake,

It's a double-edged sword, a tool of sorts,

That can bring happiness or leave us in shorts.

~~~~~

So, friends, let's use money as a means,

To realize our hopes, follow our dreams,

Let's always remember what truly matters,

And use money wisely, to live our best chapters.
