Superstition!

Black and white
What a negative sight!
Strutting arrogantly up the path
Your legacy, the aftermath
Of seeing you,
Dark clouds brew
Such sorrow from one,
Before you are gone-
Before you take flight -
I salute you sir- as is right!

 

Black and white
What a joyous sight!
Strutting lovingly up the path
Your promise, the aftermath
Of seeing you,
Sunshine hue!
Such joy from two,
My mind no longer blue-
Before you take flight-
I thank you both - as is right!

 

Funny how the sight of you,
Whether one or two,
Influences my mood for the day,
As with my emotions you play,
\'One for sorrow , Two for joy...\' I mutter
As I scan the sky - My emotions all a flutter!
Why? - Madness! -Utter tosh! -Insanity!
Creating a self-fulfilling prophecy,
Damn Magpies - always causing a flap-
Because I believe your superstitious crap!!!
