He Had Asthma
July 15 2006 - London
Once, he was a person
Now, he is a being.
Once, love was on his door step.
Now, distain is his balcony.
Now, the man has lost colour
Once, the issue of colour would have mattered
Now, he sits alone on every corner
Once, he would not have known waiting.
For he is merely a shell of a man
Aft, he will be restored to riches
For, he claims to have asthma
Aft he will breath the sweetest aroma.
The ebb and flow takes a man
Where many will dare to go.
But his riches are greater than these
Who chose to pass him, NO NO NO.

Personally, I think the best part is when you say, "But his riches are greater than these". In the way I have interpreted it I believe you are right-a person may be financially rich, but a life well lived, includes the good and the bad, the challenges, the joys, the expected and the unexpected. It is the journey; everything that happens along the way and how we respond to it that makes life rich. Most importantly it's the people we love and the mark we make with our love. So love great and you will learn what it means to smell the sweetest aroma.
