Do Not Be Greedy

The whole wideworld is very wide,
to contain my can and your container.
So why fighting with frown face?
over nothing about no one at nowhere.
Let no great greed grind your heart,
to make illegal money on monkeys.
Collect no naughty nut from Nathan in the north
and sell no shell that belong to Samuel who sails at south.
Mind only the business that bears your beard.
So live and let us live
Gush! if your goodness got finished call on God,
instead of eating easter eggs that is own by Emma.
