Ye Royal Flush

Ye Royal Flush

A Poem by Gomer LePoet
"

Lucky at cards unlucky at love

"

Ye Royal Flush


I had been honored by a perfect queen

to be chosen with intent as her lover

her majesty treated me like a king

my desires celebrated under sheet and cover


the dark green meadow filled by leaping lords

ladies in waiting for the ace of obligations

henceforth summoned by the jack of hearts

10 times on old Big Ben making his notations


her lady tired of internal stress and strain

I now was asked to go quietly with a hush

as all the cards had now been gathered up

I was subjected to Ye Royal Flush
