Another Irish Blessing
Blog Posted:3/7/2008 1:32:00 PM
This spring we will celebrate an old Irish holiday;
Countrymen will turn out green—that's the American way.
A true Irishman's spirit is easily recognized;
You'll hear it in his laughter, see it in his Irish eyes.
Irish expressions entertain—nobody smiles like they do;
Their delight is really real 'cause they're entertaining you.
Many want to be Irish and I can understand why;
Irishmen become legends because they give it a try.
Listening to their stories is a most glorious thing;
Keeping their company's just—another Irish blessing.
MARCH 17, 2008 is St. PATRICK'S DAY
