FIVE CARDS

Five cards bring the rise to rightness

The Jacks lead the way

The deal is in the differences

No  deal in the rules of this play

Play had its opportunity

for giggles and some jest

Judgement reared its Kingly head

A Queen was to take a test

She looks to what feels wrong here

in this deal that makes no deals

Pleasure lost to the nines and ten

to be tossed with out any zeal

Five cards have their temperament

In suits of red and black

With the club that made the heart ache

Not hard enough to crack

The spade it dug beneath it all

To find what was buried deep

The diamond wanted it alright

To sparkle again and not weep

Never just a game of cards

With King and Queens and Jacks

Lost to the play of the psyche

Of the right way to play like this or that

Five cards with rules to how they’re played

Five cards caught in a deal

Five cards that make for pleasure lost

Five cards that want to heal
