St. Patricks Day Tuesday 17th March 2009
Happy St. Patrick’ s Day to you all.
Sorry no shamrocks, My RB site is sporting GREEN (S)LEAVES today!! -Oops, just realised that is an English folk song. Here is a couple of genuine Irish snippets to make amends.
May your blessings outnumber
The shamrocks that grow,
And may trouble avoid you
Wherever you go.
When Irish eyes are smiling,
Tis like a morn in spring.
With a lilt of Irish laughter
You can hear the angels sing
When Irish hearts are happy
All the world is bright and gay
When Irish eyes are smiling
Sure, they steal your heart away.
