Forgive Me, Lady Luck

[Justin Silverblade]

Not exactly perfect poetry, but I'm trying to get back into the swing of writing, and this is what came out. (If it's good, then so shall all else. If it's not too hot, then we call it a 'warm up'. ). Either way, I hope you enjoy.

 

 

Forgive me, Lady Luck,

My sweetest sorrows go out

To please your brightly face.

If I have spoke, or act, or done

To hurt you, let me plead my case!

 

I meant not what I said. Please

Forgive that speech when sanity flew

Never again will I cast you aside

Woe to he who knows not you.

 

Woe to those who know you still

And are forbidden from your mind.

For the wrath that sits above you,

Loves you still, but to me, is not kind.

 

Forgive me, Lady Luck,

For while you hatred for me grows,

And you do not come out to play,

Forced am I to meet that wrath:

Father Fate shall deal with me another way!

*Gyr smiles and laughs* I've never had any luck of an impressive, awe-inspiring kind...

 

only the kind that gets me through life without being seriously hurt or killed

only the kind that gives me wonderful friends

only the kind that led to the latest (though now more then two years ago) move, which was...

only the kind that had me watch someone play archmage and get the URL...

only the kind that led me to the Banquet Hall of Blitz Nonguild and my first online friends...

only the kind that led to my friendship with you all and membership with you all.

 

I'm not happy with my entire life, or with all I've done. But I'd not change a thing, because I'd rather be here today with you all.

 

*smile*So I'm lucky as hell, no?

Thanks rev, I'll put those suggestions to thought. (I can never get the beat right, so I just try to make it comfortable to read).

I like it. Reminds me very much of Terry Pratchett's Discworld, where The Lady is the one deity you're sure to catch the worst of if you actually worship her. :>)
