Lucky Charm
I have never been lucky enough
to come upon a four leaf clover....
maybe they only grow in Ireland.
Find a penny, pick it up,
and all day you will have good luck...
my fortune didn't improve by much.
I could carry a rabbit's foot
around with me in my pocket....
I guess that rabbit wasn't so lucky, though.
Every time I find a ladybug
and try to capture it in a jar....
it just flies away from me.
I could pry a horseshoe
from a pony's hoof....
which is harder than you think.
But, I think I would rather have you
as my lucky charm,
you are as rare as a four leaf clover,
you are worth a lot more than a penny,
you are as gentle as a rabbit's foot or a ladybug,
and you are luckier than a horseshoe,
because you were much easier to find.
