What would it be like

Folder: 
Life

What would it be like,

To be a millionaire.

To not worry about money,

Or what clothes to wear.

To have every thing,

  I could ever desire.

Fast cars and aeroplanes,

That could lift me higher.

To not have to worry,

What day my pay gets in.

Or to be able to buy a new dress,

With out feeling it is a sin.

This would be good,

Really good indeed.

But yet some thing bothers me,

And makes me want to heed.

If I had every thing,

Nothing would be a big surprise.

Opening Christmas presents,

Would give you such a rise.

Going to the movies,

Would be such a bore.

 

Taking the kids to the park,

Would seem like such a chore.

Going window shopping,

Would be something you did not do.

Using public toilets,

No way!, not a public loo.

Looking at a sun set,

Or watching the sun dawn.

Wouldn’t give you such enjoyment,

When your pockets are forlorn.

To look in the mirror,

And say this body I hate.

Rather then seeing stretch marks,

And saying I look great.

No thanks I wouldn’t want it,

To be rich and have it all.

He who has nothing,

Really has it all.
