Would You Care For Some Caviar

I eat caviar for breakfast and I have servants to pluff my pillow and make my bed. Let me ring my bell so I could get my bath water ran, oh and don’t forget to pour in my bubble bath that cost thousands a bottle. Man I’m living the good life, In my mansion on top of the hill. Not to mention the cars in my garage. My address is 5466 Make Believe Lane Because in reality I live in a tent And I don’t know where my next meal is coming from. Alexis Y. 04-18-2021

You paint such a true picture of poverty my good friend - they say millionaires are growing in number and there are a handful of trillionaires as well! Well maybe like the pharaohs they will take everything with them when the die in their elaborate mausoleum. Such a lovely entry. Hugs and blessings, Jennifer.

These are factual statements: I still live in a small tent, and I'm not sure where my next meal is coming from; it's always good to dream... Great poem Alexis, I love it; by the way, that address isn't on the Map, lol. Have a great evening, warm hugs

It's always good to dream...no matter what one's circumstances. At least I think it is, Alexis. I am always hopeful....

Think we're all guilty of daydreaming Alexis, and there's someone always worse off then us. Tom

Who hasn't go some wishful thinking. Best to live a normal life but not in a tent. :)
