Two Little Things

Wealthy he was, but not healthy
Hundred of wives he had in his days
One thousand concubines he chased
Diamond and gold he bought to himself
To his wives, kids, and friends he bought jewelries 
Of all time cars and mansions he purchased
All these he had except but two little things
To the stature he had he couldn’t add a cubit
To his days on earth he couldn’t add a length
