Poor to rich (From necessities to extravagance)

I am very poor

I get a job & some money; I buy food.


I get some more; I buy a cycle

Get some more; I buy a vehicle.


Get some more; I rent a home

Get some more; I buy some.


Get more; I buy furniture

Now, on the table, I have dinner.


Get more; I buy a home

I now have a roof over my dome.


Get more; I wed & bring home my wife

There is love and peace in my life.


Get more; I buy a BMW

That's as good as new.


Get more; For my wife, I buy jewellery 

Have to keep her happy in revelry.


Get more; I build a mansion

Wife and kids love my passion.


Get more; I buy Audi and Rolls-Royce 

Parking space leaves no more choice.


Get more; I buy golden cutlery

To drink tea in real luxury.


Get still more; I buy golden commode

This is ultimate in my abode.


Get still more; I open a trust

I donate my surplus money in just.


With all this, my soul remains in this body

When I die, nothing comes to samadhi.
