Four Leaf Clovers
Four leaf clovers in my yard,
Need good luck to come to me.
Finding them can’t be so hard,
So why is it that I can’t see?
Everything blends into a luscious green,
Three buds are all over the place.
There must be four leaf ones in between,
Maybe it’s right in front of my face.
I walk and walk and look and look,
Time rushes by in a flash,
Hope good luck finds me soon,
Buried within all of this grass.
At last, what’s that over there?
A magical four leaf clover stands tall,
It’s so beautiful and rare,
Maybe good things will come after all.
Need good luck to come to me.
Finding them can’t be so hard,
So why is it that I can’t see?
Everything blends into a luscious green,
Three buds are all over the place.
There must be four leaf ones in between,
Maybe it’s right in front of my face.
I walk and walk and look and look,
Time rushes by in a flash,
Hope good luck finds me soon,
Buried within all of this grass.
At last, what’s that over there?
A magical four leaf clover stands tall,
It’s so beautiful and rare,
Maybe good things will come after all.
