An Irish Pantoum My eyes of green wear me today In the springing of my Irish heart The winds blew away the clouds of gray Hearing promise of a new love’s start In the springing of my Irish heart I am again a young colleen Hearing promise of a new love’s start I’m led back to love’s sweet dream I am again a young colleen For by your touch of giving all I’m led back to love’s sweet dream To see you stand again, so tall For by your touch of giving all That my heart would plead you stay To see you stand again, so tall My eyes of green wear me today. |

Karilea, this was delightful and I love the following line: My eyes of green wear me today. Everyone's Irish on St. Patty's Day especially if one lives in Boston! Huggles, Marti Few are those who see with their own eyes and feel with their own hearts. A.Einstein |

Lovely as the colleen that penned it! I am half Irish and half Scottish, but today I'm all Irish! Happy St. Paddy's Day hugs to you! Linda |

"I am again a young colleen" The lure of being young again is so integral to us, isn't it. This is a lovely write. KJ Through rubble and trouble and dark of night |
