Notes About The Poem

I wrote this while i was unemployed, looking for a job.

Money

Money isn't everything
You earn it just to use it
Do whatever you want with it
Just try not to lose it
The more you have
The more you spend
A simple rule
To tell a friend
In order to avoid
Getting broke
You stretch your dollar
With so much hope
Eat ramon noodles
Once too much
You pinch a penny
While have a lunch
Take a walk
Instead of a bus
Dont wave the cab
You'll save a bunch
If you save a dollar
Put one away everyday
You'll have one more
At a later date
Get paid the same
While work for wage
In due time any job
You can learn to save

Criss, that is true the more we have, the more we spend. Sadly, I like saving spending others. :) Anyways, ramen noodles are a funny food. But cheap as heep... LOL.. I buy them all the time. Not for me, though. You must be from New York, we don't have cabs down here. A great poem, with a good message... LINDA
