Wealth Poems - Poems about Wealth

Wood as gold
Wood polished so bright to mimic gold, Its yellow coat glitters in the sun, May even fetch a high price when sold, And still be cherished in the long run. Like a flawless gold that flaunts great wealth, Its glamour, a pride to regal thrones, Where most kings recline in pride and health, Yet it's mere wood disguised as gemstones. Great craftsmanship like...

THE PURSUIT OF WEALTH
It is perfectly fine to chase wealth to build a life of gold and a career that sparkles in the sun. But it is not fine to forget what it means to be just to lose the path of virtue for Dharma is the soul’s compass and without it, even grace demands a cost Know this: the riches & the fame the applause & the...

Without Regrets What Have I Left
The end of days is a term Dark enough To make men squirm And real enough In a way To make one consider His final day… Without regrets…who’s to say And doing so I must look back On what I wrought And what I wrecked What I built And what I broke What I gave And what I took Then the book that tallies sums Finds me wanting And then some For...

The Bath House
Atop a bed of plastic In a house made of bone I am helpless to feel Rome’s revival Men become sheep and wolves Crusaders line up for war Careless toward their fellow heretic Houses burn Stone pillars rise from foundations All as the sands of time bury the path forward Yet even as they do, water still runs in the bath house...

Private School
Do not go to that private school, It will affect your mental health, While the education is full of wealth, Do not put yourself on that shelf, That shelf is isolated and docile, Alone despite being surrounded, A dumb decision to make as a fool, Used as a tool to start up something new, Faced with issues many refuse to acknowledge, So...

Beauty And Wealth
They call it a win when a wealthy man pushing thirty wants a pretty girl who's barely eighteen. A girl still learning the shade of her own skin still waking up from childhood dreams But it doesn't matter, what matters is she looks good beside him. They tell her she's lucky Because he chose her and he'll provide Because she's young and that's Currency Because her skin is...

Premium Member The Quest of Life
The quest of life, it is no certain thing, No circumstance assurance brings of bliss. So many thoughts, so very few take wing; The hit or miss is measured more by miss. Shall happiness take hold when we gain gold? The heaping up of stuff shows little worth. The misery of wealth is too well told; Tranquility is not composed of earth. Does...

The Cruelty Of Wealth
Wealth, a siren's charm, alluring and bright A pillow's softness, a thimble's gentle might It provides for earthly needs, a feast to behold Yet, in its depths, a darkness unfolds Oh, wealth! Where is thy dominion? Poverty's cold grasp awaits, a dismal throne A worm on a hook, luring the unsuspecting prey Into a realm of excess, where virtues fade away With dastardly...

Idyllic Retreat
In this charming retreat, the silence of nature and hills talk to me, whispers of forgotten tales in the breeze, of hidden secrets of times bygone, an era of luxury and grandeur, where every stone holds a story untold. In the marble statues and king-size portraits, etched in elegance, they gaze through time, their faces frozen in an eternal grace, gripping the pulse of...
