One Person's Weed

There are aspirational people in every town
Who yearn for far greater recognition than local renown
Their own praises always quite willing to sing
This yearning for wealth and fame is such a human thing

Of their climb up the social ladder others quite willing to tell
And of how they are doing quite financially well
True beauty in their minds never allowed for to flower
Their craving for money is a craving for power

But then when all is said one does have to suppose
That one person's weed to another is a rose
But how boring we would be if we all thought in the same way
Our different ways in thinking make us more interesting in truth one can say

And though no two in their thinking exactly the same
There are so many people who equate money with success and fame
Such things that to competition between people to does give rise
Financial wealth and fame seen by many as a very great prize

Aspirational people are to be found everywhere
There are billions of them in the bigger World out there
But then when all is said one does have to suppose
That one person's weed to another is a rose.
