  *:ˇ. A Bet  *:ˇ.
                          


*:ˇ..ˇ:*     *:ˇ..ˇ:*     *:ˇ..ˇ:*     *:ˇ..ˇ:*     *:ˇ..ˇ:*    

She was a vision standing there, to three young friends sitting near

*:ˇ..ˇ:*     *:ˇ..ˇ:*     *:ˇ..ˇ:*     *:ˇ..ˇ:*     *:ˇ..ˇ:*    

A girl with hair of golden hues, so sweet her smile, a breath of air

 *:ˇ..ˇ:*     *:ˇ..ˇ:*     *:ˇ..ˇ:*     *:ˇ..ˇ:*     *:ˇ..ˇ:*    

To three close friends who gathered there, touched by the frothy taste of beer

*:ˇ..ˇ:*     *:ˇ..ˇ:*     *:ˇ..ˇ:*     *:ˇ..ˇ:*     *:ˇ..ˇ:*    

The night turned into a pleasant game in which they'd try their best to claim

*:ˇ..ˇ:*     *:ˇ..ˇ:*     *:ˇ..ˇ:*     *:ˇ..ˇ:*     *:ˇ..ˇ:*    

The lovely girl's inviting smiles and it became those drinker's aim

*:ˇ..ˇ:*     *:ˇ..ˇ:*     *:ˇ..ˇ:*     *:ˇ..ˇ:*     *:ˇ..ˇ:*  

To win this charming female fair, they plotted well with skillful care

*:ˇ..ˇ:*     *:ˇ..ˇ:*     *:ˇ..ˇ:*     *:ˇ..ˇ:*     *:ˇ..ˇ:*    

And as they tried to guess her name, she too returned their drunken stare

*:ˇ..ˇ:*     *:ˇ..ˇ:*     *:ˇ..ˇ:*     *:ˇ..ˇ:*     *:ˇ..ˇ:*    


             The stakes grew high, to their surprize
                  As very soon one won the prize

*:ˇ..ˇ:*     *:ˇ..ˇ:*     *:ˇ..ˇ:*     *:ˇ..ˇ:*     *:ˇ..ˇ:*    

Which was to take her for a spin in his new car so warm within

*:ˇ..ˇ:*     *:ˇ..ˇ:*     *:ˇ..ˇ:*     *:ˇ..ˇ:*     *:ˇ..ˇ:*  

A bright new day had just but dawned as one young man stretched and yawned

*:ˇ..ˇ:*     *:ˇ..ˇ:*     *:ˇ..ˇ:*     *:ˇ..ˇ:*     *:ˇ..ˇ:*  

What happened to the prize he'd won? Where had the lovely young girl gone?

*:ˇ..ˇ:*     *:ˇ..ˇ:*     *:ˇ..ˇ:*     *:ˇ..ˇ:*     *:ˇ..ˇ:*
 
Through his fears he began to search, in vain he ran high and low  

*:ˇ..ˇ:*     *:ˇ..ˇ:*     *:ˇ..ˇ:*     *:ˇ..ˇ:*     *:ˇ..ˇ:*  

Up to this day no-one knows but her parents came with tears a-flow  

*:ˇ..ˇ:*     *:ˇ..ˇ:*     *:ˇ..ˇ:*     *:ˇ..ˇ:*     *:ˇ..ˇ:*

                 Did she vanish into the night?
                 A posse team too late were sent
                Cops were called, to lend a hand
                So one young man in prison spent
                
                   *:ˇ..ˇ:* *:ˇ..ˇ:*  *:ˇ..ˇ:*    

                The rest of his life thinking how
                The bet he made, to hell it went!

                   *:ˇ..ˇ:* *:ˇ..ˇ:*  *:ˇ..ˇ:*    
                             Note:
                  Dedicated to the memories of all
                  youngs girls who have disappeared
                  mysteriously, date raped & killed.
