Happy St. Patrick's Day!

Aye! St. Patrick’s Day!
(March 17, 2019)
 
Emerald-sea “wish”-limerick
 
On yon escarpment-high beyond a bonny emerald-sea
Young lad and lassie Love!-dream a single “thee and me”
On yonder undulating blue-waves rise and fall crests-white
Unison cadenced-rhythm Rainbow! Butterflies! Unicorn!-sight
Soft-kiss passion! Devotion-emotion! Then---there were…three!
 
Amen!
 
 
Who might “I” Irish-be!?
(a “Loving!-limerick)
 
A writer of a million(?)-words!? Did plant 10,000-trees!
Lend helping-hand to progeny with hive-home wild-bees
Might that I should live just long-enough to something-amount
Eschew fancy-cars, brand-name! Just (simple-humble- I to count
Live! Love! Laugh! Thankful! For myriad-blessing I seize
 
Amen!
 
 
A-bonny! –bonny! Emerald-sea!
(errant---St. Paddy-Day thoughts!...God! Help-me!)
 
If!? My Bonnie lies over the sea? Would she be extra-large?
Might, well-then, destroy the British-shipping kingdom-hold?
Simply “drive” the continent-“bounty” across wide yon-pond!?
But, did not Mr. Christian conquer the “Island”-beauty Bounty-sailed?
Upon me emerald-sea white-cap spray like Irish-Love! world-embraced!
 
Amen!
 
Me lamented Irish-prayer! Dear-Lord!
 
In me-time of living-Love! through-space---Love!-one!...Love!-all!
In Thy most holy-name in (simple-humble) Honor!-Praise! & Glory!-call
 
Amen!
