Greed eats the soul, wastes
Life, naked, penniless that’s
Heavens entrance fee
Hell has no pity
Naked soul-less with greed that’s the
Devil’s entrance fee
So well put in so few words. Thank you. oh..... by the way your poet page says you are 98 but you do not look a day over 21?
Heaven and Hell together make Our lives here a tight rope walk Even if fear of the Devils open gate Or in anticipation of St Peter's talk (fantastic work sir - and welcome to my page too)
A powerful succint piece. Avarice will never suffice or sate the gormless.
