A bloke driving a truck at the tip backed into my car today <br />But lady luck she must have been looking my way <br />For though he damaged my car I escaped without injury <br />Thank you lady luck for being so nice to me <br />My ageing station wagon took a heavy hit <br />And will cost five or six hundred dollars to fix in money quite a bit <br />But for any accident that does seem a small price to pay <br />I do feel so lucky that I am okay <br />An accident in which I might have been injured or died <br />But lady luck on the day was on my side <br />The truck driver uninjured he too for that felt glad <br />When people are uninjured any accident not bad <br />The truck driver and I we were lucky today <br />Thanks to lady luck she must have smiled our way.<br /><br />Francis Duggan<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/thanks-to-lady-luck-i-was-lucky-today/
