Economic Sea

Amidst the world of commerce and trade Lies the foundation of our daily brigade Economy, the heart of our monetary system A complex structure that we can't help but listen It's a web of transactions and values Where supply and demand leads to venues Where products are sold and services are bought And every penny counts, or else it's for naught The stock markets rise and fall like tides And investors fear a recession that hides Inflation and deflation are two sides of the coin That can make or break a nation's join The GDP is a measure of growth But at times, it only reflects a mirage both Unemployment rates can hit the roof And bring the entire economy down with a woof As we delve deeper into this world of money We realize it's a system that's not funny For it affects every aspect of our lives From the way we eat to the roof over our heads and our drives So let us learn to navigate this economic sea And try to build a world that's free From the shackles of poverty and strife And where prosperity is a part of life.
