I AM A PAUPER
by Bill Kochman
04-13-2014
I am a pauper, not a show-stopper,
Yet in my poverty I am quite rich.
I’ve eschewed all worldly wealth,
Which can be bad for your health,
Ask those who fall into that ditch.
A simple life, free of all strife,
Is more to my personal pleasure.
I can do without so many things,
If only pain and sadness it brings,
I’m storing up Heavenly Treasure.
