Poverty

What is poverty if I may ask

Is it to do with wealth and all those tasks

So to stay rich and richer still

Or to stay reach one must steal

What is poverty if I may ask

Is it to do with how I feel or what I say

Or is it to do with how I live my day

For if no happiness I find in it 

I once was told no happiness one lives then in poverty

So what is poverty if I may ask 

To live the simplest life on earth but alone is that not poverty 

Or is it money that makes one live in poverty 

I need to know please what is poverty if I may ask
