for her lack of showing face
Abandonment, no diamond rises
club or heart a darned disgrace
Lady Luck lets out no whisper
leaving you a suit no less
Notes like stakes, a whole lot crisper -
poker face to acquiesce
Lady Luck sits at your table
giving you the widest berth
Returning to you when she's able -
winning streaks for all she's worth.
Lady Luck, now that's she's spoken
likes this table set for one
Absence is her strongest token -
Queen of Hearts orbits the sun.
Lady sits while Luck is dealing
Patience rules the gambled soul
Matters not what you're concealing -
just one victor to extol
