In Due Time Poem by Sankhajit Bhattacharjee

I and my friend took dinner in a restaurant.
‘This is your bill, sir, ' the owner of restaurant handed the bill.
‘Keep record, I'll pay you later, ' my friend replied-
his habit, I heard this from another friend.
He added:
‘I'm the owner of a flat and a car.
I purchase everything from the mall,
not from ordinary shops beside footpath like you.'
I replied:
‘I pay my bills everywhere in due time, but you not.'
With smiling face, I also concluded:
‘You may sell your belongings to pay the bills in due time.'
