WORD FOR TODAY: RECOVER
From the fall of great men and women, there is a lesson to UNCOVER
They were overwhelmed by challenges; they fell but didn’t RECOVER
Some were disappointed by friends; others were let down by LOVER
Truth is when we fail to let go of the past; ominous signs will HOVER
During one’s low moments, his innate skills, he must now DISCOVER
When you find your passion, stay focused; don’t let anyone SHOVER
