FRED

Time to write a poem before I go to bed 
A character comes to mind in the name of Fred 
Now Fred is just an ordinary poor bloke 
He liked a bet ,a pint of beer and a smoke 

Fred worked hard on a factory floor 
Putting nuts and bolts on a kitchen door 
When his day was done it was home to the wife 
Fred led just an unassuming and uninteresting life 

One day Fred's life changed forever more 
He was left some serious money he was no longer poor 
The champagne lifestyle now beckoned for Fred 
All that new found wealth would go to his head
