"luck"
-------------------------------------------------------
I have luck!
children shout
fetching the ball
from the currents of water
while it -- shines in the sky
golden in laughing -- young
hold out your hand -- make a fist
enclose the burning disk
and loudly -- loudly shout
I have luck!
Halina Poswiatowska d. 11 October 1967
