Investor
By Bobill

If my being sad - would make you happy,
I'd go out and gather grief -
Invest in desperation -
Expecting no relief.
But if I saw you happy,
There would go my grief -
And with it my investment -
No bailout - no relief.

If my being happy - will make you happy,
I'll go out and corner joy -
Invest in love and charity -
And watch our fortunes grow.
And when I see you happy -
Compounded interest - that -
No bank will hold the dividends
My investment will begat.
