Rich Man Drinks Sleeps Poem by Terence George Craddock

Rich Man Drinks Sleeps

hot fierce burning overhead sun
wise walk to shade do not run

shade to cool off from overhead sun
severe sunburn burnt hot is not fun

it is cool beneath a green tree shade
it is nice blowing cool sea breeze

slight movements in time a short few steps
toward oasis green tree shade simple distance

can change a frying sun burn heat
into calm paradise soothing shade

a time distance simple differential
between slave boss money made

a poor man works hard till grave
a rich man drinks sleeps in shade
