I'm a lot luckier than most people, although I used to look at it the other way around-that so many people seemed luckier than me.
A Linnet In A Gilded Cage
A linnet in a gilded cage, -
A linnet on a bough, -
In frosty winter one might doubt
Which bird is luckier now.
But let the trees burst out in leaf,
And nests be on the bough,
Which linnet is the luckier bird,
Oh who could doubt it now?

A Silver Lining
Which way does the wind blow
North, South, East, West
How can they say its warm or cold
Young or old
How can they say a cloud has a silver lining
That’s like lying
Just look into the sunset
And think
Look what God gave me
The wind to cool me on a hot day
And a sunset over the bay
How much luckier could I be
He gave me a nightingale to sing me to sleep
A mourning dove to help me weep
A Cardinal in the winter
And a robin in the spring
How much luckier could I be
To have Christ die for me
And now they say how bad the world is
But yet it could be worse

Luckier enough....
Many say angels live only in Heaven
and few say some can be still found in earth
used to laugh hearing it how come its true
until I found her, who had really something new
pretty smile of her's used to make me get freezed
and whenever she cross's me I could feel her pleasant breeze
the mirror in her home is said to be luckier enough
because it admires her much than anyone else
when she walks in street, can see many lips says
ahh she's really pretty cute enough
one can not only see (feel) Heaven after death
if your luckier enough, you can feel Heaven through her warm hug.....

Luckier than one's neighbor, but still not happy.
To die is different from what any one supposed, and luckier.

But no, I've just been very lucky. But I've worked hard, and the harder you work, the luckier you seem to get.

Do You Know?
do you know...
from day to day
that you have a house
of some kind to live in,
that no one's trying
to take away?
do you know...
when you go home at night
that you can put food
on the table?
do you know...
if you get sick
you can go to the doctor?
if so, you're luckier
than many in this country,
and around the world...
think about it!

Of mortals there is no one who is happy. If wealth flows in upon one, one may be perhaps Luckier than one's neighbor, but still not happy.

Luck is a dividend of sweat. The more you sweat, the luckier you get.
It's good to be a weasel
Proud eagles fly high
Oe’r land and sea
Upon majestic, wide wings tipped
with finger-like pinions
Soaring Condors…Geese…no luckier
creatures seem to be
Yet it’s weasels that ne’er get sucked
into jet engines

Realities and Illusions...
far pastures are always
greener
the sea out there beyond
this horizon is
deep blue
in our deserts
there is a show of mirages
floating princesses
hazy kingdoms
air fantasies
others are so realistic
and perhaps luckier
they always love what is here
and care for
the now
the distance is an illusion
beyond us is
a rarefaction
light bends and begins
to lie...

You and The Rain That You Have Been Praying For
the rain that you
ask has arrived
do you love the
sonorous sound
on the grass?
do you think much
clearly now?
does the rain make
you feel luckier?
look at the rest of the
creatures they are looking
for a place
where they do not get
wet
where they can have
a little warmth
where they can
for another moment
live
do not ask for meaning
the rain cannot give it to you for now

The Isle of Portland
The star-filled seas are smooth to-night
From France to England strown;
Black towers above the Portland light
The felon-quarried stone.
On yonder island, not to rise,
Never to stir forth free,
Far from his folk a dead lad lies
That once was friends with me.
Lie you easy, dream you light,
And sleep you fast for aye;
And luckier may you find the night
Than ever you found the day.
