Rich Man's House Poem by Lakshmi Varanashi Adkathimar

Rich Man's House

Rating: 3.8


It was rich man's new house
next to mine
digging deep
to reach the sky
one floor, two floor, three floor
even higher and higher
I lost the count on my eye sight!

I am common man
woke up at 5 O clock
to brush my teeth.
To my wonder
My wall was broken to his floor
Now where to go,
to wash my mouth? ! !

Its rich man's hose
every one told
Keep quite till you doze
No body new
who was he?
no one came to talk to me!

It was rich man's house
stood strong
made the neighbors door to
collapse down
His pillar was tall and sturdy
standing on top of my
sorrows
on his path of worthy!
