For Weirdwolf and Cinders, especially. Took the liberty, hope you don't mind...
The croupier stood sighing As she dealt another hand She thought it would be busy But the shift had turned quite bland And then by chance, an upward glance To look around the room A new one, novice gambler Betting in the gloom He came over to her table To try at twenty one He thought he'd have some luck tonight But so far he'd had none He said I need the Ace of Hearts I'm gambling on Red Please give me just that one big win Before I go to bed She dealt a king, said never mind I thought your bet was on She looked around for gambler But gambler, he had gone She couldn't see him anywhere But at the table, in his place A folded piece of paper Complete with smiley face He'd drawn an Ace of Hearts And included it in his note With trembling hands, unfolded it To see what gambler wrote " I couldn't help but notice you Your hair, the reddest veil I'm feeling kinda Crumpled Or is that a different tale?"
