Good Fortune Poem by David Harris

Good Fortune

Rating: 5.0


They say to celebrate
you should raise a glass or two,
but if you do not drink
that is something hard to do.
Instead, you can toast
by raising a cup of tea
and light several candles
for the more misfortunate
than you,
and then thank god
for bringing good fortune
to you.

Good fortune may not be money
to line your pockets well.
Good fortune might be the joy
of triumphing over adversity,
or it could be
getting over your fears.
Whatever good fortune
means to you.
You must celebrate
with happiness
and share your good fortune
with everyone
you will meet.

I raise my cup of tea.... To the friend I have in thee For it was good fortune alone That one day you stumbled onto my poem And thus started our friendship there More so because you truly care

If you don't drink, how about just sharing some love, all the girls love a good hug... Andy 10
