Win lose or draw
Victory or Defeat
You have not lost
If you cannot be beat

When you get knocked down
Stand up & fight back
If you can't win by default
Try a different attack

Nothing ever goes
The way that it should
But much pain can be suffered
Without loss of blood

Thank you both so much for taking the time to post a comment...it encourages me to continue.  Yours are 2 of the many names I am always pleased to see following one of my posts & I am especially happy if I manage to strike a 'chord' within you with my efforts...  it makes wrestling with the muse all the more worthwhile!

But then you wouldn't find the next person
that is about to fall into your life?

Like an angel from heaven...

You know you're in love, when you can't fall asleep,because reality is finally better than your dream~Dr.Seuss
