Saint Patrick

Saint Patrick’s Day Morning

The moment the sky begins to lighten
with fire
thoughts of rolling greens
mountains cliffs and seas
The people and traditions
the music of Irish poets and saints
a new language of prayer

Oh this is a tremendous heartfelt poem. I think God invented the Irish to write is prayers.

And a Happy St. Pat's Day to you, also! Prayer has many languages, doesn't it. Blessings, Darlene
