The Optimist, by Robert P. Bishop

Fat wallet, crisp bills
The casino took them all
I'll win tomorrow

Tomorrow, tomorrow, I love you, tomorrow,
You're always a day away.
Ain't it the truth for the gambler.
Nice one Robert
Jim

Hi Jim...thanks for reading and for the kind remark. The gambler's lament...and hope...never ends.

Hi Sue...thanks for reading. The gambler, hoping for the win, if not today, then tomorrow.
