Thank you very much.
Comment from Elizabeth Emerald
Startling imagery--dancing on the edge of a roulette wheel--star-worthy in itself. Stunning ending. Spot-on title--fleshes out the theme without being repetitive vs poem.

Comment from 4theloveoftrees
A beautiful poem, I enjoyed this little poem, a reminder and acceptance that failure that doesn't matter, all that matters is we tried. "Leave me to dance". Very nice, thanks for sharing.

Comment from Susan Larson
How interesting to couple gambling with dancing, as the wheel twirls, with no control,
Yet with the controlled rhythm of dancing, letting things fall as they may along the dance floor. Best of luck in the contest.

Comment from dragonpoet
This seems to use dancing as a metaphor for the spinning ball of the roulette wheel. It is a much higher chance the ball will fall than the dancer though in general. But probablly a lower chance it will end up where you want it to be. Unlike the dancer who usually lands perfectly.
Good luck in the contest.

Comment from Reese Turner
I suppose this one had to be written, but I am just a man and I don't understand it. I have openly sobbed at roulette wheels so my memories inhibit my poetic appreciation. I always enjoy lovely pictures of ballerinas as I had three in my house over those years... Happy dancing.

Thank you very much. I meant that she had to take chances in life and she will face up if they fails .no sobs .just stoically take it.
Comment from ESOSTINE
Nice piece of poetry laced in imagery. Life as it's made is full of risks without which nothing much is gained, and when we take those risks with bravery and caution, we are toughened to take the outcome in whichever way it turns. Well said, dear Sanku! Good luck in the contest.
