The Rich Man's Headache(from My Yet To Be Published "aphorisms For The Mind" by Basic(m): 1:36am On Oct 03, 2006 |
When younger he was in the days of olsd Days still ahead he wished before him could unfold And many sweet dreams about the furure Would he in his naivety(of then)nurture Hewished strongly that it could run,time And success in life could so quickly come Fame and wealth very soon to savour Were fantasies his breast would harbour Into reality his dreams had now turned Thedreams he (then) in his childhood nursed Success wealth and fame he had tasted But to part with them hedetested But with the inevitable end so apparent So the more are his nightmares frequent And that time could turn sluggish Is just his present-day strong wish His heart thumps his head aches When reminded that numbered are his days Like the waves towards the pebbled shore sprint So to their end hasten our minutes |
