Fortune’s Leash

Daily writing prompt
Describe a random encounter with a stranger that stuck out positively to you.

While playing in the street, one day,
With a dog as white as milk,
A stranger paused to say,
“That mutt will bring luck your way.”

Her words, light as a feather’s touch,
Left me pondering, oh so much,
Could a dog, so merry and such,
Really bring luck with every nuzz?

I laughed, the thought quite droll,
That luck could be on a stroll,
In fur as white as coal is black,
Leading fortune on its track.

Yet since that day, I must confess,
Life’s shown a bit more, not less,
Of abundance, in its fine address.
Perhaps the stranger knew, God bless.
