It's a wonderful life

Positives of a bankrupt person.

No bucks in purse

No friends to stand by

Bankrupt, I am

House sold, Car taken.

It’s a wonderful life, take me to a primitive age.

 

Death is the end

The journey has begun.

With no constraints for time

I least care whether today or tomorrow.

It’s a wonderful life, I love to live my life.

 

Ministers advice

Outcry of kingdom awaits

Neighbours attack

King is bound by duties

But I have freedom at disposal

It’s a wonderful life, I feel above all kings.

 

Sounds of coins

Glitters of gold

Bought me love.

She has now betrayed.

But my feelings still overflows.

It’s a wonderful life, guide me to real love.

 

Courage in veins

Knowledge in brain

Love in heart

Faith in God

Richer than rich.

It’s a wonderful life, I will regain what lost.

Positive attitude of a bankrupt person

[Jack Necron (Aubrey Jac..]

An uplifting message spoken through eloquently written words. Flows easily and I like how each stanza ends in a similar style but differs to match each individually.

As Stephen King said:" Hope is a good thing, maybe the best of things." Great writing, thanks for sharing.

Some people are so poor that all they have is money

[tanmay7551]

True, they only have money. There are some people engaged in farming who are just working on contract. What they get is only food and place for shelter till they work... Then few others who depend on alms each day for their survival... And on contrary also few who have lots of money and everything they can get in the world but they have no peace... If we compare from the core these all look alike but in practical world it is altogether different.

[D Connolly]

Very true. Having lived on both sides of this; money and no money, I would choose peace in my heart over all the money in the world. Cash does make life easier though, I'll give it that.

[tanmay7551]

Agreed, practical living in this fast moving life without cash is difficult. Let's close on with No Cash only E-money ! :) We have stepped ahead on this with credit cards, e-wallets etc.

Wonderful poem! I enjoyed it reading.

Thank you so much Bela for the review.

Imbued with optimism, a brilliant write. I really loved this line : "I feel above all kings". The diction is simple but powerfully used. The last stanza just hits it- the quintessential things required to gain back what one has lost.
A very beautiful poem. Thanks for sharing

It's a pleasure to read it :)

[jacob erin-cilberto]

i went through this...we have to have faith in ourselves and positiveness to start over...
and the first part of that is simply appreciating that we are alive...

Thanks J for your inputs, inspiring!

[Devanshi]

Good job!!
Your concept came out nicely.
Could've included more articles. Or maybe an "A" or "an" in some places.
Well done, keep writing!!

[tanmay7551]

Thanks Devanshi for your constructive review... Will try to include changes mentioned in upcoming posts.

This is such a beautiful piece. For me it is not just positive attitude. I also see the beauty in "life of austerity". It flows well too...An amazing job.

Thanks. I am glad that you liked it...
