Lady Luck Is On His Side Poem by Francis Duggan

One can say of him he's a hard one to scare
As he is one who has taken many a dare
But luck is on his side he is lucky indeed
As he drives on narrow country roads at far too fast a speed

He swims in dangerous deep waters where great white sharks abound
Near where danger is present he is to be found
From risking his life a strange sort of pleasure he does gain
And lady luck with him does ever remain

The young man who does not know the meaning of fear
He feels quite happy to be where danger to him is near
Some say he will not live to grow old and gray
Though lady luck with him continues to stay

We need luck for survival as some like to say
And the one who dices with death every day
Is one who does not know the meaning of dread
Without lady luck by now he would be dead

He has never been involved in an accident at least not so far
Though on narrow country roads he drives too fast in his car
And in deep shark infested waters he often does swim
He is lucky that lady luck remains with him.
