verse

Will this rain ever quit?
Rainbow in the sky
Sun makes her move
followed by thunder on I-4

Will this pain ever quit?
Car totalled; I'm broken.
Sun makes her move

Will the strain ever quit?
Surgery did not go well
Sun makes her move
a nagging dread remains

Will the drain ever quit?
Zapped by much therapy
Sun makes her move
Rainbow in the sky…

I will walk again.

and totalled them up,
what proportion of 24 you do get,
you would be surprised to find,
its not even ten percent,
in cases most,
one would rather say,
opportunities are limited,
and come by few....
