Success

Success like a frenzied horseman came and carried me away
hurled me lifelong into a brighter day.
With enormous ease, the money piled up,
blessing galore from an overflowing cup.
Reality melted in the light of the ease,
coming and going, just as I please.
 Surely I have made it? This is the life?
but love and care and laughter can’t be bought with a price.
In your success remember your roots
Don't go lairy- get too big for your boots!
The hand that ‘giveth’ ‘taketh’ so don't rely
on ease and wealth and pleasure to help you get by
True riches come from giving with an abundant heart
you are just a piece of the puzzle playing your part.
Success does not define you, it’s an illusion for sure
you are much more precious, you are worth much more.
So hold this liar carefully lest it burn and kill, strip you from your friends
and create unimaginable ill.
Be yourself always, whether rich or poor,  then friends and loved ones will always be at your door.
