A Trickle Of Thought-18 Poem by Rose Marie Juan-austin

A Trickle Of Thought-18

Rating: 5.0


A society that judges people by
The scale of material wealth
Has no heart.
It leads people to hate
Caught in the web of greed.

Great poem ma'am. That my, ..our society...full of conceit and deceit. Looking at others through the window of wealth, the mirror of money and screen of poverty. And then they kneel to pray.

Judging people by material wealth is the worst standard of measurement.
