Analysis of Embrace The Odds



Embrace the Odds

Certainty is a question
that seems possible at times.

Question marks linger
Enrich the mind.

Embrace the Odds,
Because the chances are,

Highly unlikely again.
Rarity is a solemn.

Certainty questioned,
against the odds.

From the Beginning.
Until the Farewell.

Embrace the Odds.
For, certainty is best described.

As of glimpse of  Hope,
Ready to" Pass By."
