Is it hope or foolishness,
Games of chance,
One more turn of the card,
The next pull of the one armed bandit
Hit me,
Come on–triple sevens,
Changing life forever.
More often than not
The wallet ends lighter,
The heart weeps louder,
The mind is more full of regret,
Maybe next time…
Jackpot!
~~ Dominic R. DiFrancesco ~~
Let not your passing be a bitter end,
Longevity and richness of spirit be the gift;
Fight to the death and ne’er bend.
.
This to God his glory send,
Raising hands up to Heaven lift;
Let not your passing be a bitter end.
.
Destiny demands of life defend,
Yours–the command to ford the rift;;
Fight to the death and ne’er bend.
.
Nay, claims to be simple had ne’er descend,
Through pain and suffering we all must sift;
Let not your passing be a bitter end.
.
On judgement day God’s peace must lend,
To Heavenly treasures of joy doth shift;
Fight to the death and ne’er bend.
.
Trust in the Lord your soul to mend,
In this the love in your heart uplift;
Let not your passing be a bitter end.
Fight to the death and ne’er bend.
