Everything, but she…
ambition my friend you haven’t a bit,
he spake to me….
as I was morphed…
see what I have…
a chauffeured car
Porsche,
lights on roof and a flag
I have two houses
one for my silent stay alone
the other when I need company
I have tonnes of dollars
have you any?
I play bridge
golf
watch cricket
what do you do?
I’m lucky I have all
but a wife
what about that can one do
and that’s all about what you have
so make do
create a life of ambition friend,
I advise you.

What can one say to someone that has everything of nothing, it is those things that you cannot see but can feel, that are real.
How can a beggar smile, he might have seen a touch of love, from a passing stranger.
How does that happiness form in someone that cannot see a smile, a Porsche does not smile, that you play bridge and watch Cricket, are you trying to steal a joy from others, just look some of the true things around you and if you see them then you are blessed, and this write cries for someone to be seen by others and it is a good truthful write, Yours Ian.T

I shall convey the feelings expressed by you here to
the friendly person ..
some sadness perhaps cloaked in
