‘Tis time for wearing of the green With shamrocks round the bonnie glade No finer color, true to be seen In boundless hearts merriment be made With shamrocks round the bonnie glade We dance in round and sing in praise In boundless hearts merriment be made And with our glasses toasts, we raise We dance in round and sing in praise Of deeds long past and heroes saved And with our glasses toasts, we raise And over bonnie lasses rave Of deeds long past and heroes saved Tradition pure with no remorse And over bonnie lasses rave Drinking new memories round bars in course Tradition pure with no remorse A subtle hint of elegance Drinking new memories round bars in course To merriment let us all relent A subtle hint of elegance No finer color true to be seen To merriment let us all relent 'Tis time for wearing of the green |

Gosh and Begorra, Casidy! I think that you've written a truly fine Pantoum. And a very timely one at that! Happy St. Patricks Day! Shenachie |

Oh so quick you wrote that and a good job too. Like I said to Titia, I think I'll just stick with a limerick this time. These look too hard. Pete |

Casidy-- Celebrating joy is so elegant. More merriment let us invent! Titia-- It is so delightful encountering you in these pages! Since you asked-- St. Patrick is the Patron Saint of Ireland and March 17 is his feast day. Cead Mile Failte! (Irish for a hundred thousand welcomes) Shenachie |

*smiles* Go raibh maith agat. (Irish for Thank you) St Patrick’s day has always been very full of fun for me, since I was a wee lass... its my favorite holiday. Although I am only a wee 1/4th Irish, I cherish the bit o’luck it gives me. |

Casidy - This piece just makes me want to get up and dance in tune to that grand old Irish merriment... I guess that means you've developed a pretty darned good theme... and your format is nicely intact as well... What a fun poem!!..  |
