I asked to the God: <br />Why America is on a verge of bankruptcy? <br />Why all are facing a drought of currency? <br />Do you think anyone should bank on banks? <br />Which have sunk a people of all class and ranks. <br />What quake produced a tsunami of sub prime crisis? <br />Can you explain it to the men, rich in vices? <br />Which is a better pill, communism or capitalism? <br />Can you illumine it with a dose of pragmatism. <br />God replied: <br />Son! There is nothing in this world like crises; <br />These are hidden opportunities in disguises. <br />One prime lesson still you haven't succeed to learn, <br />One should never spend more than one earn. <br />In jungle of finance, if you are led by economists, <br />Your fortune will be devoured by a debt’s beast. <br />If you mortgage future joys for a moment's passions, <br />Holy odyssey will fail to reach a divine station. <br />I replied: <br />In future, I will never take any kind of loans, <br />So I don’t have to groan in a sea of moans. <br />Thank you for your advice, oh! Heavenly bard, <br />Right away I am tearing down damn credit cards. <br />Now I will share this poem with all my friends, <br />So they don’t face the crisis till their life ends. <br />Consider as a merit, an act of forwarding this email, <br />So like economist, I won’t be tormented in your jail. <br /> <br />Dr Hitesh C Sheth<br /><br />Dr Hitesh Sheth<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/sub-prime-crisis/
