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!

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

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).
