The Luck of The Irish &
The Four Leaf Clover
March 17, 2009
By: Rose Marie Rideout


A four leaf clover, found in a field,
So many traditional beliefs,
The true Irish, Faith, Hope, Love & Luck,
Count as one for each leaf.

Even back to the day of Eve,
She carried from the garden a clover,
With four beautiful leaves,
That she used to cover her over.
 
A clover used to fight evil spirits,
Known as a special charm,
Carried to protect all,
Keeping them from surrounded harm.

They say if you find yourself one,
Luck shall come your way,
Ownership of a four leaf clover,
Will bring good things your way.

Not just on St. Patrick’s Day,
But the whole year through,
Believe in Faith, Hope, Love & Luck,
In all things that you say and do.

I vividly remember hunting for four leaf clovers on a hillside on warm summer days. It was such a thrill to find one. Probably found a total of two the entire time I was growing up. But that's the thing. Wouldn't be precious if they popped up everywhere~! One of life's most important lessons. Thanks for reminding me!! xOx 'Pea' xOx

Dear Rose, I happen to have not one but two four leaf clovers, Miss Fortune kind of ignored me. One million dollars from that Bonnies Leprechaun O'Malley could have done wonders on a few Veterans Hospitals and Homeless Servicemen. Oh shut! ain't gonna be.
Happy Erin's Day with a few polish jokes for a change!
