Importance

Would you give up your soul for gold?
Your joy for dreams
A laugh for wealthy scowl

Would you sacrifice love for a seat in the House of Lords?
Your dog for bodyguard
Professionals for true friends

Would you give up sky for Penthouse slate?
Your horse for cashmere scarf
A campfire for furnace

Would you trade a smiling child for fame?
A chance to change for security
Indefinite for God
