The Royal Flush

 

You Can Bet on Faith

In the game of Poker, the Royal Flush is the best hand,

The Straight Flush is next, so you know where you stand,

Then Four of a Kind is hard to beat,

But a Full House could put you in the winner’s seat,

A Flush is certainly not a bad hand to get,

It will beat a Straight, so it’s worth the bet,

Three of a Kind, well it’s okay, I guess,

If you have Two Pair, not as great as the rest,

A Pair is not good, you might as well fold,

But the High Card is the last thing you’ll want to hold,

So are the rankings of a good card game,

In the game of real life, some similarities are the same: 

Faith is the Royal Flush you are longing for, my dear,

Faith is always stronger than Fear,

Fear is the fold, the unwillingness to try,

Choose Faith over Fear and this is why.
