“I believe luck is preparation meeting opportunity. If you hadn’t been prepared when the opportunity came along, you wouldn’t have been lucky.” — Oprah Winfrey

If you have luck,
you will have many bucks.
In seasons of dry or cold,
you cherish the blessings manifold.

If you have luck,
victory is yours to pluck.
Through years of devoted notion,
your journey has a forward motion.

If you have luck,
you seldom need to duck.
Each challenge becomes your favorite game,
You just play and score your fame.

If you have luck,
your thoughts are not stuck.
Many opportunities meet you with pleasure,
when you feel this life is the real treasure.

If you have luck,
you are different from the ruck.
God favors you against the odds,
and you receive everyone’s nods.
