This is the poem i wrote my girlfriend when i asked her if she wanted to go out with me.


Wealth of the Nations

If someone took over the world
And gathered all of it's wealth
He would have all the money
And could spend it on himself

He would no doubt have precious stones
Every hue and size
Yet not a one would be found equal
To the ones that dwell in your eyes

He would have a palace
With marble walls and such
But none of those, though polished
Would be as smooth your skin is to the touch

With the money he could see many great things
Like the waterfalls near Quebec
But none would fall as gracefully
As the hair cascading down your neck

Yet with all the wealth and money
And even a push or shove
You cannot buy an emotion
As wonderful as love
