Poor Richard

Was it a bat?  
Poor Richard missed the mark again
Knowing less that good old Peter Finn

Who is counting?
Maybe another sunset passes before
A gentleman glows anew with pride

Masterfully a gentile spaced his words for maximum intensity.
A younger man can only muse what old men find attractive.
Best to bet the richness surpasses all the whims of youth.  

Of note to all, before the darkness falls again, to find your peace within.
