Notes About The Poem

O Maggie O

Her hair was long a scraggly mess
Maggie O’Shea flaunting a flimsy dress
Of shiny silky satin sheen
In bright vivid emerald green
Flashing her smile ever so sincere
Asked for a big green stein of beer
After all it was St. Paddy’s Day
She wouldn’t have it any other way

Hello Line ... green beer. Does it still give a hangover? The Irish certainly know how to celebrate on St Pats day as Maggie did - thanks Line - Lindsay

Line, this delightful write is bound to be at the top of the winner's list! Splendid! Glad you liked the Alexa write. Its fictional and I don't even own an Alexa for fear it would sass and argue with me - ha! Bob
