A Four-Leaf Clover

I espied it
  far off in the field
A four-leaf clover!
  I cried with glee

As I approached
  its leaves were three
What Fate lay in store
  for unlucky me

I'm sure there's a 5-leaf clover (rarer!) you'll find--that'll fortify your blessings, growing nearby! Happy 2022 Gershon!!!ab
