Roulette' Wheel - Taking Risks

Taking risks Ride for a fall, we enjoy and relish, Idea of taking risks in life why not cherish ? Play with fire, have your heart in front, Even if you expect to be burnt, Put your head in lion's mouth, It's time to prove you are worth, Dare take the bear by the tooth, Leave everyone surprised by your youth, Take a leap in the dark, Arouse your valiant spark, Have guts of a gladiator's pledge, Prove yourself by dancing on the razor's edge ! A roulette' wheel, go for your life, Be it sorrow or joy, suave or strife ! Written on 7/8/14 Contest- three themes Theme- taking risks Sponsor- Shadow Hamilton Awarded 2nd place
