Save Me Now

Green leprechauns already know There's zilch at ends of a rainbow So to own and hold Pots of silver and gold Is the way to have lots of dough Author's note: The color of leprechauns is significant here!

good one Duke,,,, though I think if a person has their health, then they do have their treasure ;} So one doesn't need to go in search, even though I would ;}

This is very nice Duke. I agree with you. I guess in life - we are worth according to what we have. I'm glad that we are all the same in God's eyes. Lucilla

They seem to be tough to hold onto.

I think my favorite green leprechaun is Franklin, followed by Grant, Jackson, Hamilton, Lincoln and Washington.

The poem is cute but to own and hold happiness is the way to happiness. Loved it

You are absolutely right! Sometimes, you have to be rich just to see that it's true! Money doesn't buy happiness. It's counter-culture in this society to strive for happiness and let the money come later (or not).
