Be Wary

Men go crazy after wealth It reaches some, unsought It comes to some, unawares But it eludes most, unbidden Going after wealth Is like trying to catch a bird It involves great craft Demands drill and discipline Often it flies above our heads Or it may perch on the height of trees At times it swoops down to Earth Or it may roost within its nest Some catch it in a trap Some hatch it in a nest Some shoot it down to death Those of brain and brawn, chase it down to yield, To a few it comes to alight on the hand. But be wary, when you deal with it It will die, if you hold it too tight It will fly off your grip If you hold it too loose.
