The agony of scarcity destroys not only the harmony, <br />but also the unity and calmness of any unit. <br />That unit be a loving home of happy families or a nation <br /> Whose joyful moments will be taken away. <br /> <br />When poverty enters, why human think irrationally, <br />When poverty suffocates, why a man acts violently, <br />When poverty displays, why everyone shows immaturity, <br />When poverty annoys, why the youngsters are hurt emotionally. <br /> <br />Ignorance of the parents eradicate the innocence of their offspring, <br />Unawareness of laws of basic economy kindles the fire of greediness, <br /> When the kids are the investment, why should make them to be pawns, <br />Just a simple life is more than enough to witness another dawn. <br /> <br />Making a mistake out of curiosity is easy, rectification is very hard. <br />Taking a loan or two from a bank or a shark is easy, <br />Always remember that repayment takes the toll, <br />That should not be the peace of a family.<br /><br />veeraiyah subbulakshmi<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/bills-to-pay-and-the-money-lenders/
