"Opportunity" by Berton Braley is an uplifting poem that encourages readers to pursue their dreams and not give up on their aspirations. The poem uses rhetorical questions to challenge the reader's negative mindset and provides examples of all the untapped potential in the world.

My Dad is dying. I already miss him. I will be listening to this for many years to come. It makes me think of everything my adoptive dad did for me.

Why poetry, deep words words that ignite emotions .
Who we are as human ?
Not a machine not AI generated algoritham but a amazing creature and what makes us amazing is our emotion.
People deny this emotions but when you do this you are destroying humanity .
You want human to be without emotions just like machine or mean human with no herats and feeling .

Yong genertion emotions are good open you're heart for this emotions .listen it feel it .
Don't listen to them who say smotions are bad ?
You have to be intelligent but being intelligent does not mean you have no emotion.
Please listen to this deep words and open hearts for emotions .

Inspirational, really? Semantically it's very close to "Cat's in the cradle." I never saw that as the story of a good father, but it's among the favourite songs of mine. Who didn't know when my birthday is, when I was visiting the family because it was my 27th birthday. I doubt he ever took in the lyrics.
