Some days you'd trade a kingdom for a horse.  
But mostly, you would rather take the kingdom,  
and work to be the subject of a course  
on how to pick your battles and to win them.

Some days proceed exactly as you like,  
but many are a comedy of errors,  
and worst are those determined but to strike  
your clenching heart with undiscovered terrors.

Some days it feels that love is labor lost,  
a night's dream, nothing more, a passing pleasure,  
and others find you paying any cost,  
refusing any boundary or measure.

Most commonly, your days are much ado,  
and all is well that ends well. Good for you.
