You May Be A Successful And Celebrated Billionaire Poem by Francis Duggan

Your billions in money do not tell me of you anything
Though the gullible your praises feel happy to sing
Due to the mansion you live in your Olympic sized swimming pool and chauffeur driven car
Though these things do not tell me of the person you are
You may be a successful and celebrated billionaire
And your type of person in the Human World are quite rare
But some of the material wealth your gift from Mother Nature you seem unwilling to share
Though of your own needs you remain quite aware
Since any generosity of spirit by you never shown
As a philanthropist and humanitarian you will never be known
You are not one of those who believe in give to receive
Your gift of wealth from your Earth Mother to your family you will leave
When to the reaper of lives you eventually does fall
And that too will be your lot since death is for all.
