Luck
When I think of luck
I think back
I think of the innocence of children
I think of green glitter
sprinkled all over the floor
The excitement in a child's face
hoping to see the leprechaun
Praying for him to grant a wish
rainbow slides and a pot of gold at the end
Laying in the grass trying to find a four-leaf clover to give luck
Wishing the hopes
and dreams come true
As an adult those dreams
have come to an end
Good things happen
we call it good luck
Bad things happen
we call it bad luck
In any situation good or bad
Luck is just life experiences
played out by chance
To say one is lucky
one also has to point out
they are unlucky as well
