The rich and the poor



The rich are respected by all
They enjoy everything
They never suffer
Because they are rich


The poor are not so
They are never respected
They go through hardship
All because of they are poor

When the rich is sick
He has someone to care for him
But when the poor is ill no one to care for him.
All because of the demon called poverty.
