St Patrick’s Day is just one week away…
St. Patrick’s Day is a holiday that takes place on March 17th to honor St. Patrick, the patron saint of Ireland. It’s a day to celebrate Irish culture and heritage, and is celebrated with parades, festivities, and green-themed events
Irish-based poet David P Caroll sent us his “Happy St Patrick’s Day” poem to be published on our website.
Happy Saint Patrick’s Day.
On Saint Patrick’s day
A joyful sound and with
Shamrocks mall around
And little children’s laughter
Fills the air and we’ll
Celebrate Saint Patrick’s day
This Irish feast a welcome sight
A beacon shining pure and bright
_
And family and friends Will
Gather round in a joyful parade
Waving Irish flags on Saint Patrick’s day
And stories are been told and
Happiness and memories are made
_
From Enniscorthy to Gorey
The celebrations hold their sway
And the little leprechauns are laughing
Hiding in the fields of the morning mist
The Irish spirit strong and ever true
A heritage of legends shining bright
_
And Saint Patrick
His legacy in song and story
Forever told and on Saint Patrick’s day
May your day be filled with
And good fortune wherever you go
So let the Irish music fill the air
And let your spirits soar high
_
So raise your glasses
And we’ll toast our hero
Saint Patrick and to the
Spirit of Ireland we truly love the most
_
So let green be worn
A symbol pure and bright
A celebration of our hero
Saint Patrick and his
Blessed legacy forever true
_
In vibrant hues a festive scene
Irish blessings warm and true
_
And on Saint Patrick’s Day
The memories we cherish
And so may the love and luck
Of the Irish be with you
All around the world
On this very special and
Loving peaceful day
So God bless you all
And may you all have
A magical and happy
Peaceful Saint Patrick’s Day.
