giving stories to fill pages


The money tree
Bear the fruit
Somebody takes it
Leaving it empty

When people ask
Nobody gives straight answer
The roundabout excuses
Giving stories to fill the pages

The money tree
Under the spot light
The sun and moon
Sometimes the stars

The answer hard to find
The taker keeps quiet
People know who he is
The keeper of the garden

He tries to evade
He doesn't want to get involved
He keeps doing his routines
He stays mum when approach

The money tree
All empty on its branches
The people ask
The gatekeeper stays quiet
