Galway Green

There once was a laddie from Galway Lassies asked if he wore green, he said, “No way,” I’m not trying to be smart, It’s tattooed o'er my heart But feel free to give me a pinch anyway! 3/27/16 For the “It’s All About Wearing the Green—The Limerick” Contest Sponsor: Skat A

How strange that this contest title should remind me so much of that great W. B. Yeats poem: Easter 1916... Now and in time to be, Wherever green is worn, Are changed, changed utterly: A terrible beauty is born. Good luck in the contest, Tom...And a happy and contented Easter this holiest of days. My best regards! :) john
