(Here is my annual re-post for St. Patricks Day weekend! Though I am mostly of Cherokee Indian blood, I also have Irish blood to me inherited from my mothers side of the family and am proud of it! So kiss me 'cause I am partially Irish, hehehe!)



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
So I say to you...

Happy St. Patrick's Day, Noah! I always love reading Irish legends. There's a good 50% of Irish in me (which explains the temper, lol). Very nicely done!

Thinking of you
I know I should be strong
I just can’t say ~goodbye~(LR)

Noah, I have more Irish blood in me than any other (part Indian, too). I'm proud of bein both. I gues the Irish is where I get my green eyes and reddish tinted hair from.

Happy St. Patrick's Day to you, too, friend!!
