Notes About The Poem

9/12/2026 for September Challenge: Tritina Poetry Contest sponsored by Andrea Dietrich 

Weekly Card Game

Every week, my dearest day
is when my buddies and I partake and play
our regular contest of cards.

What's great about codgers and cards
that would make an old duffer's day 
and inspire pensioners to play?

I dunno, but I think I will peacefully play 
with these jokers, and cut ups, and cards, 
and these goofballs till my dying day. 

It's our day - time to play cards - goodbye!
