An Ace
Give me a ten and I'll be your friend
Give me a nine and I won't decline
Keep it at eight and you'll still be a mate
Well a seven's not heaven but i'll let it be
If it's a six I may write you a letter
Choosing 'choice words..like
It will get better
If it's a five well I'm a Bee Gee
HA HA HA HA, STAYIN ALIVE
Give me a four and I may show you the door
A three and a two is better than one
And BEING NUMBER ONE!
Is seldom done.
So reversing the flow
I'll call it an Ace
Not for being too slow
But for keeping my place
At the top of the grade
Number 1 is seldom achieved
And can't be undone
So bravo To ten or a one
Whatever the outcome
I've won! !

that was really good.....
This was a fun read. I like the way you rhyme. Nothing forced about it.
Anderson.
This one is good. I like the rhyme and it is really light and flowy. Nice. I give it a 9.
