239 (19.03.2015)

My fifth child, my fourth son, is six today
My brother also floats to fifty-two
It's funny how the world spins and we pay
For all the things we've done and wish to do.
Another day another dollar spent
Another chance that will not come again
You wake up and you wonder where it went
You think too much you drive yourself insane.
But don't despair of all the passing days
Just try to relish each one as it comes
You know that life is just a passing phase
For kings and princes, millionaires and bums.
Nothing but a sonnet on time and wealth
But one that I wrote proudly by myself.
