Why Some Men Are Poem by Francis Duggan

Why some men are so very hard to please beyond me to explain
He has a good job a new home and a new car and yet he does complain
Two healthy school-going children a girl and a boy and a beautiful and faithful young wife
One would swear to listen to him that he is one hard done by life

He acts as if he were homeless never knew of an easy day
Some people though financially well to do you never hear them say
That lady luck is on their side and hovering near to them does stay
And he is surely one of them perhaps his kind are born this way

You show some a flowering garden and they will only see decay
You never see them happy though financially they are doing quite okay
For as long as the breath of life is in them as negative they will remain
They never do seem satisfied though great their worldly gain

Just one more very wealthy man who is obsessed by greed
One would swear to hear him talking of financial help he was in need
The negative financially well to do his type are never hard to find
Though he must be very poor indeed when he is poor in his mind.
