As my eyes scanned through the graceful roses, I saw you way down beneath them, hiding in their shadows. Nestled amidst a sea of emerald foliage, your delicate petals formed a perfect quadrifoliate*.

I was delighted to see you, for I thought you must surely be a sign that I would find My Rose. So I plucked you from your earthly bed, claiming your luck as my own.

Such is the fate for all you four-leaf clovers. Your lives are cut short the instant you are found. Whether you die or not after being plucked matters not to us. We simply want your luck for our selfish reasons.

That is why you are rare, isn’t it? The three leaves that remain and live a full life warn all the newborns of your fate. None of them should dare sprout a fourth after hearing your story.

But I’m sure some will not listen as you did. I will find them! I will pluck them! And I will not care. Why, you ask?

Because you are the luckiest of all beings.
