THE COMMONER

Money stacked pile on pile,
and forgot the existence of Him.
Being happy all the while,
until the day reality struck grim.

Did all his life, as he please,

while he never looked around.

Money, food kept him at ease,

while his wealth was all abound.

Death came knocking, then he knows,

- he was wrong all the while.

It was the beginning of his woes,

while wealth was buried in a smile.
