A rhyme(rhyme-royal)

Counting days, counting seasons
Counting bodies beyond reasons
Counting fortune, count on luck
Count on dodging, murder, duck!
Counting numbers, counting bills
Count on life to bring its ills
Counting cards, counting chips
Count on sales to rise or slip
Count investments, counting prices
Counting shares, counting slices
Counting cash flow, Ching! Ching! Ching!
Count accessories, Bling! Bling! Bling!
Counting numbers, count on dreams
Count on lowered self-esteem
Counting options, pass or fail
Count on freedom banked on bail
Counting chances, count on fate
Count on skipping jailhouse gates
Counting children, drowned in sorrow
Count on questionable tomorrows
Counting numbers, from hundreds to fives
Count on the notion–I’m still alive

    It is a way of life how you have to count on everything to make it work. Good job of putting it all together.
