Hope glimmers

It seemed an exciting start,
born in a fabulous place

The light still never leaves my eyes
even when it's left my face

And I can shoot my words with tact,
even when I'm lacking grace

With such keen sense of duty,
I don't plan to win the race

It may be just odd circumstance
that dumped me in this place.

I still will make the best of it,
I swear to you I will

Life is fun, not tragedy
no matter how big the pill

I'm going make like the singer Kate....
keep running up that hill.
