The Ringing R

By no mistake my name is Richard And I am chauffeured in a rickshaw A rickshaw that comes first in a row With others that roll on shining rims As I desire to get to the riches My way to the riches is a riddle But I will straighten up the rickets And scoop the material that is raw And then shake it until it is ripe And then become that real rich Richard

I like it, Richard, for some reason I believe the riches you seek. I know another Richard, who desires the same. Well, I can't say the same. It is a riddle after all. :), Stopping by with a nice, sweet Welcome to Poetry Soup. I will get much delight in reading and in time become familiar with your verse. As for now, I will greet you with the same smile others passed when I first joined the soup. Wishing you and your poetry the best. I hope you get to meet all the nice poets around here STARTING with me- SKAT :-) Please drop a hello and tell me a little about yourself if you wish. I would like to be your newest poetry soup "FRIEND" Hugs* SKAT

Hi Skat A, thanks for welcoming me to the soup. I hope the other Richard is well equipped with skills to solve the riddle and become that real rich Richard.
