All is Vanity Day by day Week after week Month by month Year after year Plans are made Plans are cancelled Wealth is accumulated Exotic cars are lined up Clothes romance each other In the heaven of a closet Shoes fight each other Trying to get attention! Sitting back Looking at it all Life is good! With all these beauties Human nature still hunts For more! Crazy to believe, But human nature is greedy Grabbing and grabbing Ears become deaf To the voice of caution Take it slow and enjoy Your life in this short visit on earth! Copyright � Anita N. Eboka February, 2008

Anita, I enjoyed every line in this writing, you brought things to life that I had never thought about. I truly loved the last verse...life is so short but when we are young and foolish we just live life as though it will last an eternity. A nice poem.

I liked the imagery coming from your closet. Very cute. Anyway, greed is a survival instinct. It is something that evolved into us. If we hoard all the water or the food, then we insure our offspring will survive versus our neighbors. Then a few thousand years ago we started working cooperatively, that evolutionary process is still making its way through humanity, but evolution takes time. ~ Sara
