If You Were Rich, Where Would You Live and Why
November 10, 2015
If I were rich what would I have done?
I am thinking of places near and far
Perhaps a lavish mansion
Hidden in the heart of a mysterious land
Its walls build of Far East marbles, embroidered with shiny brass
Glass floors curved with diamonds, crystal Chandeliers hanging from every slant
I would bath every morning in the camel milk
And would put on the finest silk
I would demand kings and queens official visit
To brag about my newest shoe suite!
If I were rich, I could have even lived on the moon
In a spaceship in the shape of a cocoon
I would float instead of walk and do all sort of summersault
And sing Na Na Na Na while watching you catch a bus to work
Or I could take a knapsack and travel the world
Live in every five star hotels
Exclusive room service and personal hosts
I would lift my little finger
When sipping on the most exclusive Champaign
Flirting with fine young gents
And rolling my eyes at beautiful girls
You want me to tell you the truth?
I don’t really want to be rich
I am happy with what God has blessed me with
My family is my greatest treasure
My friends are my assets, my God my golden armor
Why should my heart yearn for any other?
When I am already rich!
