 All in (and All in Love with You)
                       © 2021


There was a time when lovers knew
How to make a dream come true
But mine got lost in the whoop-dee-do
And all my dreams were overdue.

Now I’m all in and all in love with you
I see your face in every thing I do
You changed my life and my narrow point of view
Yes I’m all in and all in love with you.

I played my cards close to my chest
I flirted like I was the best
But you called my bluff and raised me too
And stripped me of my hullaballoo.

Now I’m all in and all in love with you.
I see myself in everything you do
I looked to the east and looked to the west
But you stood out from all the rest.

And I’m all in and all in love with you

Yes I’m all in with my chips
No more bluffing and no more blips
Now I’m all in
For the very last spin
In for the money
and in for the win...

Yes, I’m all in and all in love with you.

A wonderful personification of the moves of poker compared to love. Very creative and, I'm sure for who it was intended… Greatly appreciated.

All in indeed for the love and for the money in the last stanza. A good match is hard to find.

I love this! Is it a song? Great lyrics! Well-written verse.

Very nice, Edward. Skillfully constructed and whimsical in its message. Life, and especially love, is nothing if not one continuous spin of the experiential dice, eh? This allegorical bit of doggerel sets it all forth quite perfectly. From the tone apparent here it looks as if whatever gods there be dealt you a Royal Flush!
