Celtic Rose By: Noah Eaton 3/17/01 Dancing on the emerald hillsides Under the rainbow smiling from a pot of gold Singing in the Gaelic rain with the leprechauns Celebrating my Irish blood, green to the soul To my heart, I wear the Celtic rose The spring weaver, with three lush leaves Each leaf holding dear meaning, spirits brought together in unity The three values that be, mingled together to Trinity The first leaf represents the Father, life’s giver Spirits of my ancestors together to guide me with the light Shaping me as who I am, carrying on the old soul of love As I walk outside, I can hear their knowledge whispering in the winds, and protecting me at night Next is the leaf representing I, the son Who hast share all the love I must give Fill my future generations with His insight, as I slowly become the Father Revealing the power of my soul to Him Finally, the Celtic Rose holds the presence of the Holy Spirit His love alone rests inside me, as with every other one of His people To Him I pray for Thy's teachings Feeling the spring breeze draw forth, God’s life-giving breath for the faithful and the peaceful Find yourself a shamrock, the Celtic rose, for there is plenty to go around To you I share the light of Trinity, which all of us has happily sought God Bless you on this St. Patrick’s Day Erin Go Braugh! |

Dancing on the emerald hillsides Under the rainbow smiling from a pot of gold Singing in the Gaelic rain with the leprechauns Celebrating my Irish blood, green to the soul To my heart, I wear the Celtic rose The spring weaver, with three lush leaves Each leaf holding dear meaning, spirits brought together in unity The three values that be, mingled together to Trinity ==================== Noah this is outstanding writing!! what a wonderful spritual poem. A very refreshing perspective on a holiday theme... I personally dont care for "holiday poems" for the most part.. but you've written this so well with such wonderful imagery and poetic phrases and moral that it is timeless in its message. I loved the shamrock being the Celtic Rose and the meaning behind each clover leaf. very well done poet!! We wish ourselves beautiful, |
