Affluence

Seek to know more As affluence spores Here at the door Feel ample core Watch success shore When less is more? Wonder works well Just where you dwell To each a prize Of grand surprise Look, do you see? Watch what may be Count your blessings Feel soul telling Each moment thrills The easy will Do what you need Beyond coarse greed And when you bleed Watch how pain feeds The path of wealth Tells of your health Truth has a way To save your day See that you see Love that sets free Purpose finds gain In passion's pain Live not in vain For love speaks plain Undo the lust Lest you go bust Unhinge vain greed Take what you need Too soon, too late Death's at the gate All earthly things End with death's sting Use well your time To grace fond chimes Know this my friend: This life must end Leon Enriquez 05 June 2017 Singapore
