Gambling on Love

What a great piece that emphasises the addictive power of love. Like gambling, we theoretically know that our recidivism cannot confer any benefit. We know that we should be more controlled with our investment, whether financial or emotional. However, putting this theory into practice is another story. Our hearts cannot be tempered. A very on point piece. Well done.

Love is a gamble.
A game everybody likes to play.
And, unfortunately, not everyone wins.
Losers always cry deal again!
Is it fate that makes love work out?
Hmm????

How true this is! So often people play the gamble with love and lose. Your poem is on the spot! It gives a real message to the reader, and shows how so many hearts are broken because they don't put enough value on it! Your words, with chosen rhyme and picture, are very creative.

Interesting naani poem. I liked the "whoops! too late!" at the end.It gave the poem that extra spice. It helps to reinforce the notion of odds being slim. Nice work.

Really enjoyed this. Picture portrayed your subject matter too. I always admire those of you who tackle the tougher poetry formats and have them coming out with beautiful flow and your 'vision' well portrayed and defined.

Wow, I read many poems where love is described metaphorically, but this is one of the best-- good originality and word choice. Your poem holds much truth.
Loved it!

I like this form very much and you seemed to have met all the requirements of it well. Good use of chosen words to create a rational poem with only 25 syllables! Good luck in the contest. God bless and hugs, Susanne
