The Grim Reaper’sÂ
red carpet event,
Is sure to leave you spent.
He’ll rob your possessionsÂ
and strip you bare,
For beyond his portalÂ
only spirits fare.Â

Live to be rich if you can,Â
but we all die poor

Money nearly means nothingÂ
because you don’t take it onÂ
one of the most important journeysÂ
of your life; death.

You come bare handsÂ
you go bare hands.

Afterlife does not need wealthÂ
to feed your soul.

Â
I realised a tad bit late,
At the Death gate.
Empty hands,
Beyond this land
Wasted my life collecting a fortune,
What a misfortune!Â

In the end, nothing really matters.Â
Your name, your fame, your designation, your wealth, your richesÂ
will all be forgotten.

Don’t waste your lifeÂ
by working yourself to deathÂ
for earthly possessions,Â
you can’t take it alongÂ
when you leave this world.

Money is not a currencyÂ
used in the world of souls

Everything turns to dust at last.Â
Through portal of death,Â
only your soul shall go past.Â
Not your earthly possessions,Â
nor the money you saved so vast
Â

Alissa Spina
Â
You’ve done a lot of garbageÂ
to fill those suitcases sir.Â
No amount of moneyÂ
can buy you out of this one.Â
Please leave those bagsÂ
at the door, they matter not now
welcome.
Be kind. Be humble. Be honest.

All your belongings and cash
Are relegated to the trash,
When death comes a greeting
Everything in life is fleeting. Â

You entered this world with nothing,Â
and you’ll leave the same way !

All these prized possessionsÂ
of your materialistic craveÂ
and you can take nothing with you
 to your grave.

A materialistic viewpoint,
Did disappoint…
As on the threshold of death,
All the world’s wealthÂ
can’t get you an extra breathÂ

Nothing will Go with you
Not even your own shadow
Everything will become
a mere garbageÂ

Your cash is trashÂ
the rest of the journeyÂ
requires no money.

You can’t buy
 your way to heaven

Mai Quesada
Â
How ironic what life brings
we made our ass off accumulatingÂ
material possessions
then how patheticÂ
they would just become trash
when the inevitabilityÂ
of death comes! Â
Â

Sulekha Pande
Â
You’ll go empty handed
 on your final journey.
Â

Jolynn Natman
Â
Even a pile of money
 buys the same Grave as your neighbor.Â
We enter this world with nothing,Â
and leave with the same
