Fortune

Seuss Style #2

In Hollyville they always dine

On sautéed figs and truffled wine

They sit at tables dressed in gold

Counting riches twenty-fold

 

While on the other side of town

In Hollyburg, THEY all sit down

To humble bread and ale buffet

Counting blessings every day

 

If you could, you just might wish

To partake in the ville-side’s dish

But treasures can be overdone;

Among so much, you value none

 

You see, when simple pleasures reign

You worry not about more gain

And every sunrise is a thrill

When hearts are all you need to fill
