Miser's Wife

On a hill top, lived a man so stingy
Though wealthy, his house was very dingy
When his wife asked for money
He would chortle- 'No Honey'
Tired, fled with her lover on a pony

Creative work. Sad that some people get caught up in the love of money instead of the love of people. Your visit to my page was uplifting and informative. Glad that you go to the garden early in the morn. Sara
