Happy St. Patrick's Day!

I know St. Patrick's Day was 2 days ago, but that was Monday and today is Poetry Wednesday! So we'll continue the celebration a little longer with a little Irish poem.








There's a dear little plant that grows in Ireland.


'Twas St. Patrick himself sure that set it.


And the sun on his labor with pleasure did smile.


And a tear from his eye oft-times wet it.


It grows through the bog...


Through the brake, and through the mireland.


And it's called the dear little Shamrock of Ireland.

Nice on-topic post.

Did you see the real shamrocks at Gram's? I don't think I've ever seen one before.
