The wealthiest man I ever knew
With whom there was true friendship,
Who counted diamonds as us lesser folk would dust,
Said with true sadness in the only negative emotion he ever shared,
Over those memorable and gracious lunch occassions,
'Your children grow up so quickly.'
How correct he was and is.
P.P.S. (Post Poem Statement)
These words are dedicated to the memory of Douglas Cooper.
