I have two passions poker and poetry. I work on both all the time trying to improve.
I have been happily married to the same woman for 41 years of my 59 and climbing. I have 6 grand kids and truly enjoy spoiling them every chance I get.
I am simi retired but I still do a little remodeling every now and then when I'm not playing poker. I was a General Contractor for 35 years. I live in Granbury Texas and have for the past 18 years. I love going golfing with my wife and friends when I'm not playing poker.
My favorite saying is. "Skill is important and that's always true, But nothing is better than when lady luck smiles on you."
Texas Holdem
Texas Holdem Is the game, That we all like to play
Hoping to be a contender, Or just win enough to stay
The best hand ever changing, With each new card turned
Yet it's truly in the betting, Where real lessons are learned.
Folding, calling or raising, Trying to find some way
With the stakes ever growing, Just in the game to stay.
Pairs, full boats, or flushes, We hope for the best hand
There is nothing more exciting, Than being the last one to stand.
Sometimes we are the winners, Sometimes the ones who lose.
Each game telling it's own story, By the cards that we choose.
Yes Holdem is the game, That has us in it's grip
Never knowing the outcome, But always enjoying is the trip.

Poker Player's Prayer
As I sit me down today
At the table where I will play
Seems a very good time for me to pray
For Aces and Kings to come my way
Let my boats be full everytime I stay
and the final table be mine today.

I wanted to share one of my favorite poems with you all. I hope you like it.
Chas
The Reflections Of A Father
I can give you life,
But only you can live it.
I can teach you the truth,
But only you can learn it.
I can give you directions,
But only you can follow.
I can offer you advice,
But you can make it hollow.
I can teach you right from wrong,
But the choices will be your own.
I can teach you self respect,
But honor is earned by you alone.
I can advise you about sex,
But I can't keep you pure.
I can teach you the facts of life,
But Your reputation I can't assure.
I can tell you about drink,
And where not to go.
I can warn you about drugs,
But only you can say no.
I can tell you about life's goals,
But only you can choose right.
I can teach you about kindness,
But only you can walk in the light.
I can warn you about sins,
But I can't make you moral too.
I can teach you not to lie
But only you can choose to be true
I can teach you to share,
But only you can choose to give.
I can teach you about Jesus,
But only you can choose to live.
I can love you unconditionally
But I can’t receive it for you
And I Can be always be a real dad
But only the heart will know if that’s true.
With all my love for you my child
Your Dad

Just finished this one and wanted to share with my friends. Chas
Poetry Is
Poetry is an author's thoughts
Found deep within their heart
Their feelings revealed in truth
Completely or sometimes just in part.
Each has a meaning that is true
To each and every poets life
Found in their love and conquest
Or even within their own strife.
Profound thoughts each one
with a meaning of it's very own
Written about something in today's life
or sometime that is now long gone
Finding it's own unique flow
And it's very own rhyme
As taken from their real life
In some real moment in time
A profound truth that flows
from their minds and hearts
And it doesn't matter where
It ends or even where it starts
Precious words describing life
and love or war and peace
For many poets this truly is
Just a simple way to release.
If you’ll Always read poetry with
Your heart and eyes open wide
Then you might be truly lucky
And find something very special inside.

I stand before you, a Poker Wizard. Not a dog, a shark, a clown, nor lizard. Upon the felt, is where I wage my war. And on occasion , settle a score. I'm a Wizard you see, your chips, my passion. I read your thoughts, I controll your action. So when your chips crash on the table. Just be aware, I am ready, willing, and able. tamochin thought you might appreciate this. gl on the felt |

Written with a pen... Sealed with a kiss. If you are my friend, Please answer this: Are we friends or are we not? You told me once, but I forgot. So tell me now and tell me true, So I can say, I am here for you. Of all the friends I've ever met, You're the one I won't forget. And if I die before you do, I'll go to Heaven... And wait for you. Show your friends how much you care. Send this to everyone you consider a FRIEND, including the one who sent it to you. If it comes back to you, then you'll know you have a circle of friends...BABYFACE |
