Opportunity

first time, when you're young you hardly recognize it once more, when you're old... it's larger-than-life... opportunity knocks twice ~ this time, get it right

Everyone deserves a second chance, at least up until a certain age... ~ gw

Hi Gershon, opportune: (of a time) well-chosen or particularly favorable or appropriate. Just like this Senryu. Here's to second chances. -Richard

Thanks for a little humor, my friend. Don't see that much in senryu form. The bears have three 1st round picks, next year could be a good year for them. Bill

Most teams would have a stellar year. But, 'da Bears'll stick with Fields, no doubt, as they have with their 'coach,' and that'll doom 'em once again.

just don't let them pick Goldilocks with the first pick....
