Bearded kind Chauffeur in a Matt black Hearse
stopped at the roadside pavement
and asked his classmate
wears a ragged check shirt
who's a beggar counts the coins
in his till.
'Hey! Long time no see my old friend
and I am free today no funerals
would you like to have a ride
around the Lake? '
The beggar thought it's a fine chance
as he never gets such an opportunity
in his life time.
'Yes Sir! that would be nice
but don't drive fast
as I like to see the new year's full Moon.'
Beggar replied very humbly.
To Guy de Maupassant for his short story 'The Necklace'.
