Beginner's Luck

(John Raymond Pollard)
December 1, 2008
John R. Pollard
I got beginner’s luck.
You smiled at me
And I was thunder struck --
Lit by lightning.

Must be beginner’s luck.
You came to me
And asked me for the time.
I give gladly.

Who knows if there’ll come a day when I know such love again.
Who knows if there’ll come a day when they drain the sea.
You seemed a cut above:
What luck for me.

We’ve got beginner’s luck.
Look and you’ll see
All stars are fortunate.
You’re heavenly.

There is a place where I go to watch the setting sun.
There is a place where I go to hear the sea
And see the stars
And feel the breeze.

No need for rabbit’s foot
Or new penny.
I’ve got beginner’s luck,
You’re close to me.

Who knows if there’ll come a day when we know such love again.
Who knows if there’ll come a day when they drain the sea.
Let’s watch the stars
And feel the breeze.
