Though Hope Of Better Times Poem by Francis Duggan

Though hope of better times in me not dead
At my age i don't look too far ahead
But to daydream of great wealth ought not be a sin
I would gladly welcome a big lotto win
A million in money having said that two
In my old age wonders for me would do
But such a daydream becomes reality to few
And to that you may say tell us what is new
My better days to the forever gone
And the clock on my life ever ticking on
But i try to make the most of every day
Since time does not wait it ticks and ticks away
A huge lotto win would be my dream come true
But such good fortune may not be my due.
