Bought the winning ticket
Wind swept it in the thicket
Met a nice gal
She considers me a pal
Went for a run
For health and fun
Tripped two minutes in
I just can’t win
Adopted a dog
What a slob
He drooled on the couch
And ate the door
Tossed a message in the ocean
It rolled back to shore
I professed my love
To a sweetheart from school
She wrote right back
Her response, so cruel
You bullied me, she said
Made fun of my hair,
I hope your life has been filled with despair
I suck at luck
That much is true
But, as it turns out,
Karma was due

I just discovered you can “like” a post without comment. You probably prefer comments vs likes; but, being your Dad, others may consider me prejudiced. What is your take?
