A quote on clover, and not the floral kind.
What a miserable thing life is: you're living in clover, only the clover isn't good enough.
Bertolt Brecht
There are not many quotes relating to the comfort kind, so if you can, give the quote with the word clover in it then that would be Wow!
I am in the midst of learning free verse:
People tell me that I am an awesome rhyme poet - but free verse, it's just naff to think me writing anything but rhyme.
What I want is a write on the topic of, "CLOVER", not the plant version.
This interpretation!
| in clover, enjoying luxury or comfort; wealthy or well-off: They struggled to make their fortune, and now they're in clover. |
So! I would like a poem, free verse, (Oh how hard was that to ask?), between 10-20 lines, on the term, 'clover'.
The only rules are:
1.) That the word 'Clover', needs to be in the verse.
2.) and nothing relating to the floral kind evident.
All other rules are well documented in other contests, so I won't go on.

And he'll never know that his parents grew up as the peasants on the street,
Working and dirty, now in clover they live.• Commented on by judge. -

in the spills of clover
i jumped from the cliffs
of dover, and all the what if's
took out handkerchiefs
and I just smiled as i went over.
