Robert Pettit Poet Light Verse

Scratched Off a Winner

I thought I would take a chance the other night. 
The move I made turned out to be right. 
I scratched the silver coating off the ticket I bought. 
Lo and behold, see the winning combination I caught! 
I feel like going on a shopping spree. 
Hello lottery agent, show me the money!
