When There Is Thunder Poem by Qiniso Mogale

When There Is Thunder

Rating: 5.0


When a person is wealthy
One has many friends and relatives
When a person is in political authority
They have many bootlickers and hangers on
When a person is in power
No matter how ugly in physical appearance,
many pretendthey are attractive.
When there is thunder mushrooms mushroom.

Whenpeople lose their earthly wealth
When people lose their political authority
When people lose whatever power they had
Suddenly they are left all alone
There are no hangers on, no bootlickers,
no friends and relatives.
The mushrooms around them disappear
They mushroom where it has next thundered
When there is thunder mushrooms mushroom.

So many in this world depend on material things and wealth to buy friends. But, shame also goes to those who think that by having such pseudo friends they to should be equally respected. Pride, pride, fools still follow Satan's lies. Thank you my friend. You are in my prayers as I hope I'm in yours.
