Adversity

There is a word in the dictionary spelled
A-D-V-E-R-S-I-T-Y, some definitions of which are
"a wretched state...a misfortune, a calamity".
Experience has taught me this about
That wretched word "adversity":
Webster's always spelled it wrong!!
It's a misfortune and a calamity,
And with him I can't go along!
I move we reprimand the dunce
Who has o'er the years led many awry,
Spell it out correctly for once:
O-P-P-O-R-T-U-N-I-T-Y!
