Here's what happens when 2 human traits get together
In the village of traits and emotions
Jealousy and Greed got together
Laying in the same bed with each other
In time they became as one
An off spring came about
It was all they could do but tout
As proud parents usually do
What would they call this bundle of joy
Is it a girl or is it a boy
Keeping the name secret for years
The little one always had tears
Not having a name
With its parents to blame
What a shame
Wishing and wanting a name
Knowing everyone has one
Unknowingly to others with a strong desire to have the same thing everyone else had
Making the little one sad
Truth be told Jealousy and Greed never gave the little one a name
Waiting for their child to grow and see
They decided with all that desire
It was to be named...........ENVY
