Lady Luck

Fortune kept smiling down on me
It was time to beat the odds you see
Whatever gamble that I made
Whatever casino that I played
The money just kept on rolling in
I didn't know how not to win !!!
.........................................
Then reality hit me like a truck
No longer a companion was Lady Luck
Every single spin of the wheel
Every single time a losing deal
The dreams I had went up in smoke
I have to admit, I'm flat broke !!!

Hi Richard a great write . I enjoyed . I have never gambled so I am a newbie . It never appealed to me . I always made gambles in my life sometimes it would pay off other times I was left searching for answers . Cheers .:)hrl
I don't gamble any more !!! For reasons in my poem !!!
I used to really enjoy playing cards but that is a long time ago now.
Gambling on life can pay off ! But as you say it can raise more questions than answers.
Wishing you all the best. :)

This is fun and entertaining. Yep, had friend of a friend, whose dreams went up in smoke due to gambling.
So pleased you liked this one.
It is such a shame some get addicted so they lose more than they can afford.

There are questions that every writer should do at least once in life:
Why and for what live?
By us or by the people who love us?
Why some people need to reflect their emotions and concerns in a paper?
It is written by a vital necessity or that our writings are shared by others?
Richard Waters has reason, it's gratifying that someone on the other side is set, discuss and understand our work, but irrespective of this, writing is always a personal and creative activity that necessarily must be collected nor understood by no one.
If the praise had been my engine long I would not write absolutely anything (LOL), there was a time, (between Windows 95 and 98) that once while editing any writing on the Web, someone answered me protesting and stating that the writing was a real shit.
It is obvious that the message me by an eye and out the other and despite that he continued publishing my real stories and fiction, I always wrote poems that did not have any reader and if it did not the Web would continue writing pages and pages then keep them in a drawer.
Made this introduction I will try to comment on Lady Luck.
Lady luck is improvist when you don't expect it, tempt her at a casino usually carries people into economic ruin and personal. It happens with the game as it is the case with all good things, in its fair measure is positive and in excess becomes a serious pathology that not only can ruin the player person, also to all their family environment.
In relation to the fate they say that there are people who are born with star and others are born starry.
Of all games of chance my favorite is poker, perhaps because apart from luck, to win or to lose also depends on the player's skill.
A hug.
What a glorious appraisal ! Thank you for your contribution to my work.
Hug ! :)
Thanks for your kind words and support !
