David Kavanagh Poet Senryu

Relief Beyond Belief

when all hope is lost
             randomness regains control 
             ~  time to befriend chance

Have a nice day-Alexis David Kavanagh February 16, 2022 at 2:04 PM Thank you Alexis, I wasn’t sure if many people would get this one, but when you pare back hope, it appears to boil down to chance, cheers David
