What Odds <br /> <br /> What odds he said as through the years<br /> Her dreams he trampled without a tear<br /> <br /> What odds he said as her feelings he hurt <br /> With a nonchelent air and a cruel smirk<br /> <br /> What odds he said and continued to rave<br /> As he stood unfeeling over her grave <br /> <br /> What odds he said I don't really care<br /> But she returned to him in a nightmare<br /> <br /> That gave him cold shivers he could hardly bare<br /> And brought to his eye a reticent tear<br /> <br /> He pleaded for her to leave him alone<br /> But she never did and replied in this tone<br /> <br /> What odds she said, what odds my dear<br /> For at this point I don't really care<br /> <br /> Without a wimper he recently passed<br /> From this earth and the cares he amassed<br /> <br /> And as they laid him under the sods<br /> The cry went up what odds, what odds<br /> <br /> John Cornick<br /> Halifax, Nova Scotia<br /> <br /> <br /> <br />   Submitted By: John Cornick
