I Am From

I am from Northern Ireland, from Potatoes and Green Fields, Damp rainy weather, I am from the Middle of nowhere, I am from slate tiles, from fireworks,
I’m from Willows and Pete Moss, from I Spy and Kindness, I’m from Ms. Browns Boys and Father Ted, and from Farming. I’m from Being loud and Happy, and Charlies, I’m from Strabane Rd, I’m from Hedges and Newtownstewart, I’m From Ireland. From Fish and Chips, From Catching Chickens and also from Heart Attacks, Big Strong Men, Shovels, Sweat, Blood and Tears. I am from Moo’s and Baah’s, from starch, from Grit, and from Food. I am from Ireland and Ireland is my Home

I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.
