And I'm going to be right behind you. I'm guilty of at least four of those--five, if you count greed itself. :giggle: I'll leave it to you to guess which ones, though. :eyes: :smooch:

My god thats amazing. Set out beautifully, it rhymes so easily, and you use of language is fantastic!

"Greed's a deadly sin, you see,
in truth, the root of all-
pride is greed for virtue,
and goes before a fall"

-absolutely brilliant!

Wow. Not much more I can add to what's already been said about this poem.

I really think folks all over should read it and understand what greed can and is doing to us all. What a powerful image you portray and so well worded and rhymed. Easy on the eye to read, easy on the ear to listen to (perhaps even when sung ? :) ).

:thumbsup: :D
:+fav: - Congratulations m'lady. You done great :salute:

I love the simple rhyme structure, you can almost chant this. It contrasts well with the complex subject.

Moves on; nor all your Piety nor Wit
Shall lure it back to cancel half a Line,
Nor all your Tears blot out a Word of it.

Amazing job.
I love the first stanza, and the last stanze summarises the poem quite well!

I love the flow of the poem, and how its message is so..simple.
Incredible, as always.
