You Have Heard Many Similar Stories Before Poem by Francis Duggan

You have heard many similar stories before
His girlfriend is twenty he is seventy four
Together hand in hand they walk up and down
The concrete pathway in the park of the town
With brown hair and brown eyes and lovely to behold
It goes without saying for her he's a bit old
But he is a billionaire and as some like to say
Money speaks every language in the World of today
To make way for the younger lover in his life
Lately he divorced his thirty five year old sixth wife
With many grandchildren his youngest child a daughter is three
Money speaks every language would you not agree?
With his gray hair dyed brown, he's had a face lift or two
'Tis truly amazing what money can do.
