A Winners Hand by PassionsPromise at All poetry

The deck of cards are being dealt

your hand is precious and divine

Words are whispered and they're felt

raging across your lips to mine

My King of Hearts you reappear

and the others disappear

My King of Hearts

the deck of cards is ours my dear

The deck of cards are being dealt

another chance to hold your hand

Beneath your crown are eyes that melt

and the jack of hearts leaves his brand

He seals my hand with final touch

and soothes the heart and souls of such

He seals my hand

the deck of cards are in our clutch

The deck of cards are being dealt

the final hand a winners call

Before the winner he had knelt

the King of Hearts had claimed it all

I won the King

the deck of cards brought tears to fall

    JackReed3 I don't happen to know;
    but realize if you think he is good then he must be a definite cut above the others,if you say so
    
    and yeah being alone is not my favorite past time either as you well know. There have been many Sundays where its just me and the cats, amazing how much conversation one can carry on with felines isn't it?
    
    Went to meet some old Corps buddies but only two of six showed up, which was disappointing but ok, as I had not seen either of them in over a year. Both had retired due to cutbacks at Honeywell earlier this year. Mac was supposed to be there and I had not seen him since around 1997, but he did not show? I will chat with him on the phone later this week I guess? would have been nice to see the old cuss once more, but yeah, sometimes things don't go exactly as we planned huh?
    
    love your poetry and you gal,
    
    you are one of life's true treasures Tory, you really are.
