 Saint Patrick’s Day ~ Linda L. Dowd ~ It is that time of year again, When I am not myself, My dresden skin turns emerald green, And I become an elf! I have a taste for Irish beer, And I shrink way down in size. My ears and nose are pointy, And I have green twinkly eyes. My voice becomes quite lilting, With a bonny little brogue, I doff my little elfin hat, And become a rascal rogue. I trill, "Top o' the morning", As I skip-de-doo my way, Down the paths and garden walks, 'Cause it's Saint Patrick's Day! “Happiness is a state of mind. Think happy! ~ Be happy!” ~ Linda L. Dowd |

“The Apostle of Ireland.” His home was in the green-lands of Northern Ireland. Original name Succat. He was taken as a slave at the age of 16 but at the age of 22 he escaped, and later ordained as a priest. A prelate of the first order some said a church dignitary. He brought renown to the three leaf clover, stating that it was reminiscent of the “Holy Trinity” He drove the snakes out of Ireland, and known to turn anything he touched to green to mach the landscape of his homeland. EA, I would be happy to skip-dee-doo and drink a pint or two any time colleen!  Heeheee… JL Thomas, because thou hast seen me, thou hast believed: |
