Definition: Wages, money earned, income.
Alright class, settle down and let’s take a peek, At the word “earnings,” simple and sleek! The dictionary’s right, it’s true you see, It’s about what you get, financially! “Wages” are pay for work you do, Like a baker's bread or a mechanic too. "Money earned," that’s plain to state, From selling crafts, or helping someone great! And "income," well, it’s broader and wide, Including pensions, where your money does reside. So earnings encompass all these things you find, The rewards for effort, of a thoughtful mind! Think about allowance, earned with glee, Or maybe savings growing steadily! Does that make sense, my dear students bright? Any questions floating in the light?
