    Little Lady Luck

    Little Lady Luck

    These rivers of words before my eyes
    Deliver a tale without surprise,
    For I have sailed this story once before.

    My fingers attempt to turn the page
    but linger and wilt in summers' rage.
    This young September sun I can't ignore.


    An ally, the shade betrays his oath;
    Allowing the rays to beat us both.
    We shrink beneath the oak of which we lie.

    Conceding the win to sun and earth,
    I yearn for the day of Autumns' birth,
    Then start to stand and tell my tree goodbye.


    But there on my knee I feel a touch
    Of slightest degree but just as such,
    to make me stop and take attention there.

    A princess of love in black and red
    And giver of luck - or so it's said.
    A little ladybug, minute and fair.


    I study her there upon my knee.
    She raises a hand and waves to me.
    It gives me hope and reasons now to stay.

    Along comes a cloud; the sun is gone.
    She's hidden in veil upon her throne.
    And lady luck and I enjoy the day

    Exclamation

    A different cadence, but a wonderful poem.

    Some of us laugh
    Some of us cry
    Some of us smoke
    Some of us lie
    But it's all just the way
    that we cope with our lives...
