Finding the Four Leaf Clovers

He walked past them for a month or two
Having no idea they were waiting there
Until he sat down to take a rock from his shoe
And three four-leaf clovers were waiting there.

What can it mean? Is it a sign from his wife?
She has been gone for a year, to a heavenly life.
She was Irish you see, and full of promise and hope.
He spotted those four-leaf clover and felt like a dope.

How long has she been trying to get my attention?
He starts to collect them, and feels all kinds of affection.
The day that I found them was good luck for me.
I know that she is watching, and waiting for me.
