Robbing Peter to Repay Paul
Pure love - Paul selling his expensive, German Hohner harMonica to earn enough money to buy Monica a 24K gold chain for her beautiful Tiffany watch; and Monica selling her watch so she can afford to buy Paul a Sterling silver case for his musical harMonica.
For the love of money - Peter winning Bill Gates' Microsoft business by telling he just married Yoke Fong (Victoria), only daughter of the great Chinese Emperor; and Victoria marrying Peter because she loves US dollar money, and Peter is Microsoft's only business partner.
Happy Ending - Robin Hood robbing Peter to repay his warm-hearted cousin Paul; buying Paul a brand new harMonica matching the silver case Emily bought for him; and buying Emily a new watch fitting the gold chain Paul bought for her; Peter survived the hold-up (could afford the loss with a dazzling smile), Paul and Emily lived happily ever after, while Robin listens to Edelweiss, the Sound of Music, on Paul's new harMonica.
Footnote - Credit given where credit's due - this poem is inspired by and symmetrically completing an impromptu, written by Twisted Dreamer on September 7, 2016.

That was just a little check to see whether reader isn't sleeping (...), "on purpose" but not really, you seem to be quite alert, real glad you enjoyed it since your Micky & Minnie poem prompted me to write this outrageous piece, I was merely trying to make sure that the adorable, most unselfish couple can love each other without material distractions, so I imagined a plot to get their stuff back, finish your impromptu so to speak, Robin Hood (my favorite hero) acted as the "deus ex machina" in the comedy, cheerio
