Notes About The Poem

That's Life: A different Kind of Challenge Poetry Contest

Sponsered by Andrea Dietrich

Set For Life

Smart stewardship of this money of mine
Ends up setting me for the next time
Then when things explode again

Fires of the stewardship can set a win
On the deliberate mindset
Rules of money management can offset

Living check to check is not fun
I wish the money was endless
Funky spending habits
Ends up ruining the thing that should have set up for life
