Two Brothers, Two Paths

With just one hundred in their hand,
Alex and Jamie took a stand.
Alex saved, thought long ahead;
Jamie spent it all instead.

Alex watched his money grow,
Step by step, nice and slow.
Jamie chased the thrill of now,
Wondering later, “But how?”

Years went by; their paths were shown:
Alex prospered; wealth had grown.
Jamie struggled, pockets light,
Wishing for a second sight.

A simple tale, plain to see:
Our choices shape who we’ll be.
From little seeds, big trees sprout —
Think wisely when you venture out.
