Before the day turned into night,
I had made sure I dressed up right,
Wore leather-loose and suede shoes tight,
Then, drove my Benz down strips of light.

It is Vegas, not like those towns,
Get to basics, unlike those clowns,
And place those big bets slam 'um downs,
All my aces beat all those crowns.

I went from GO and passed by jail,
All my doe in a golden pail,
I went from fish right to a whale,
A penthouse suite my holy grail.

I paid my debts, I'm free and clear,
Live righteous, happy, and sincere.

I nearly forgot that I wrote this pirece--too busy with the high-rollers intro in the alley with my new bald-headed friend named, 'Baba'! Mahalo from the next lotto winner, William

Your poem--a perfect fit for Vegas. Aptly described--your words take the reader to the scene. I like your poem and especially the ending lines.

Tho' it's been some time, I hope to go on a nostalgic run, thanks, Vijay. Disney said he liked fairy tales, because nobody truly live happily ever after. Aloha, William
