The musty smell of dollar bills.
Which people think will cure their ills
they simply cannot get enough.
of that crisp green folding stuff.
But money won’t buy happiness
you can get by on something less
A lesson they are slow to learn
You do not need all you can earn..
By putting in those extra hours
and have no time to smell the flowers.
Totally neglect your family.
It is your choice you are quite free.
to leave your wife a rich widow
But will she miss you when you go.

Truer words were never spoken. Take time to smell the roses (or the coffee) whichever the case may be. Money can buy you things, but it can't buy you love! Great perspective, Ivor. Linda
