- St Patrick's Day -

  Ireland
  quite grand

  with gold
  to hold

  in green
  we seen

  beer flows
  all knows

  take in
  head spin

  drunken
  shrunken

  the mood
  some food

  happy
  chatty

  and dance
  in trance

  no dull
  a lull

  in spell
  as well

  next day
  must pray

  the soul
  black hole

Joseph P. DiMino March 12, 2025 at 4:23 AM Yep, sounds like St. Patrick's day -- with my Irish buddies, when a young man, shared many a riotous celebration. And hangover.

Akham Nilabirdhwaja Singh March 11, 2025 at 11:34 PM A lighthearted touristy view of Ireland and drinking good times so enchanting.

Hilda Greenhough March 11, 2025 at 9:24 PM A very good poem for Ireland. I like the ending.

Daniel Henry Rodgers March 11, 2025 at 4:59 PM Dear Anne-Lise, What a fun whirlwind of the Irish spirit with light, lively, and full of charm! I love how the rhythm, the playfulness, and that cheeky bit of reality make it so much fun to read. It captures the heart of Ireland, both the joy and the recovery. A delightful ride! Spring Blessings, My Dear Friend, Daniel

Sara Kendrick March 11, 2025 at 5:34 AM For those who are Catholic, I guess they have to go repent of their sin/s the day after. Some of the cities here in the USA will have some very special times planned on that day. I am not so sure St. Patrick would be pleased with the events that will happen. Thanks for sharing.

I don't really know since I am not of the Catholic faith. Sara K Anne-Lise Andresen March 11, 2025 at 5:38 AM - We don't celebrate St Patrick's Day in Norway... I don't know much about this celebration, Sara :) - Thank you very much for your comment :) - hugs
