30 Poems in 30 Days
Lucky Number 7
Poem the seventh
Days in a week, the fourth prime,
roll two dice, that one’s mine:
Jeri Ryan, License to Kill,
Heads Up, Hands Up: what a thrill.
Deadly sins and sacraments,
ancient wonders and continents.
Happy, Bashful, Grumpy, Sneezy,
Dopey, Doc, and always Sleepy.
My favourite number’s one odd duck,
but give it time: I’ll have good luck.
