People work themselves to death
Never ending daily grind
Tasking each and everything
Lest falling far behind in a major bind.
–
Starts at fifteen or sixteen
In their youth, little regard
Seeking out the greatest time
Not quite the effort for working very hard.
–
Time flies and the years rush by
Laziness will not abide
Learn the value of money
Then accomplishments, the wealth of healthy pride.
–
Scales now tipped another way
Work becomes out everything
As we mature we work hard
Security and prosperity, now king.
–
Those two extremes in our lives
Balance needed that’s the truth
Work and play must coexist
As my life and lessons, are the living proof…
