Finding the Elusive Four-Leaf Clover
In all my days
I found only one.
I searched and searched,
but they remained elusive
in their secret gardens.
My children asked me,
"Mommy, did you ever find a four-leaf clover?"
To which I responded with a tired yes.
"Only one," I gently said,
thinking to halt their dreams of treasure.
My children searched for only a few minutes
and found not one,
but three four-leaf clovers!
Three elusive,
hidden,
tiny,
green secrets, and
putting their mommy to shame.

I remember looking for them as a child, but I don't remember if I ever found one.
I voted for you on BLOG VILLAGE today.
