Dicing For Love or (The Love Game) My love you entice me, call me into this game Where my heart won't ever be quite the same You lure me into this enchanted magic dream Where things just aren't all that they seem Your eyes they promise me so very, very much Making me yearn, beg for your tender touch You beckon me in with your temptations' spice Calling me to play this game with lovers' dice This gambling with my soul and now my heart Risking so much waiting for this love to start Playing for loves own truth and hearts desire Dicing with danger as I step right into the fire The stakes for this very risky game of chance My hearts' wish for us to share this one dance The bet is that we should quicken this pace That passion will show to us her smiling face The stakes are paid in heated lips of fire Which takes this game into loves hot desire Teasing kisses leading to much higher stakes I've no intention of slamming on these brakes You collect your winnings with an eager greed Which builds this game with devilish speed Dicing for love is sometimes a very tricky game Even if you don't lose you still burn in flame Marsha Take back the hope you gave,- I claim Only a memory of the same Robert Browning [This message has been edited by Marsha (edited 11-14-2000).] |

Circe, thank you love, I'm glad you liked it. I'm not even sure where this one came from, unless it was the fact that today is the day we have to pay our subscripions for our lottery syndicate. Not that we've ever won anything, but we keep hoping. And that if you don't play you definitely won't win. Take care Mushy Take back the hope you gave,- I claim Only a memory of the same Robert Browning |

Circe, thanks kid, and I know just what I'd do with it. If we the MBOOPAS ever win the prize After picking up the check of a decent size We are coming over en mass to see you We all have an agreement, oh yes we do That if we win we will jump on a plane I know it sounds just a little insane We've said we will take the OSCAR's too So you can see that they belong in the zoo I know that's pretty wicked of us At least we won't expect them to take the bus So if we ever win the prize we seek At America's far shores we will take a peek Take care Mushy Take back the hope you gave,- I claim Only a memory of the same Robert Browning |

Ethome, I'm glad you liked this one, and I thank you. Your own work is absolutely superb and it's getting better. I'm glad you like the title, I never give any of my poems a title till I post them, so whatever they get called is pure chance. (No pun intended there, sorry) Take care Mushy Marsha Take back the hope you gave,- I claim Only a memory of the same Robert Browning |
