Ireland

The law of attraction pulls me to you
For as long as I can recall
Dreaming of the rolling hills
Beside castles I'm so small.

Romance fills the air 
Everywhere is wonder
I hide my heart because its big
So it can not be plundered.

Love you land of beauty
Love you land of luck
May you keep your sweetest charm
Maybe Cupid struck.

If a leprechaun should appear
The magic show begins
Dance and let the soul renew
Get rid of heavy sins.

Shamrocks mean divinity
The green will blind your eyes
The wind blows free across the lakes
The rivers old and wise.

Inhale exhale
Breathe in divine
Taste the country
Like age old wine.

Kristen, I am Irish so I jumped at this poem. I have written two pieces on Ireland of the past and the new Ireland. One is nostalgic and the other is the sad state of our affairs in our country now with recession once again. This is a lovely poem - have you visited our country? Thank you for writing this.
