Am I Kidding? © 2008 Reg Wright

I am not a rich man,
With treasure stored away.
And yet, I feel I am rich
As I greet each brand new day.

The millionaire from his penthouse
Can view the morning sun.
I from my humble yard
Share the very same one.

The rich man drives a Bentley,
Merc, or Rolls Royce
Only one at a time
I don’t have much choice
But my little Ford Cortina
Get’s me there just fine.

No yacht or plane have I
But then, I’m not so sure
I really want to fly,
Or sail on windy sea
I’m sure that’s not for me.
So you see my friend
I sit here on the river bank
Drowning a worm or two.
I would not swap
Or want to be a millionaire
Like you

I must stop dreaming.
