Life in Accountancy
What comes you debited,
What goes you credited,
Birth is your opening stock,
Ideas are your Assets and
Views are your liabilities,
Happiness is your profit and
Sorrow is your loss,
Duties are your out standing expenses,
And working is your prepaid expenses,
Bad things you always depreciate,
And all good things you always appreciate,
Friendship is your hidden adjustment,
Your character is your capital,
Knowledge is your investment,
Good will is your wealth,
And your aim is to tally the balance,
In the end death is your closing stock.
