You Are My Queen

What cards have you dealt me,
And am I ace or a sad joker,
Your hand I cannot duly see
As I am a pitiful smoker.
 
I'm not in a close pack to attack
Your stack of chips on your shoulder,
And be I flushing red – or am I black,
I will not hold back being a soldier.
 
I'm a jack-the-lad of harmony
And have a respectful patience,
Building bridges along the way
To further my loving essence.
 
I would buy you diamonds if I could,
But I do not have the wealth of a king,
I can afford to buy you what's good
In a fashionable sense without bling.

A re-edited piece. This poem has a theme of playing cards within it.
 
Thank you. Love love, Andrew.

    Greetings from Florida! I'm bored to tears at work
    so I decided to browse your website on my iphone during lunch break.

    I enjoy the info you provide here and can't wait to take a look when I get home.
    I'm shocked at how fast your blog loaded on my cell phone ..
    I'm not even using WIFI, just 3G .. Anyhow, excellent site!
