Wee bit o' a plea. For those who celebrate the holiday, Happy St. Patrick's Day, and many, many, many more. Sum Irish Sumquestionable

Wee Bit o' . . .Wheeee!
A wee bit o' Irish, wee bit o' Cherokee,
wee bit o' Scot, wee bit o' history
more'n a wee bit o' a mystery. C'est moi.
What's great about Earth is a wee bit
o' this and a wee bit o' that. If-if-IF
we all agree we are from the same vat.
Row back to the shore where it all began,
it is woman, man, woman, man, woman, man.
Blood red as a red, red rose. Like that.
Some of us got more than a wee bit o' this.
Some of us got more than a wee bit o' that.
Fate picks the clover, Fate draws the straw.
As we celebrate this bonnie day and the next,
let's raise our toasts to a bonnie bit o' sub-text
says there is hope if we spruce up the ol' vat.
New home will welcome all races, all creeds,
all/all, knowing the very last thing that we need
is to divide. {Yes, Mr. Lincoln, divided we fall.}
I raise a wee glass of a wee diet Sprite
to everyone willing to hold hands tight
and dive in. All for one and one for all!

Pea,
No blarney here--just a veritable melting pot of wonderful words! You struck gold here, dear.
Me, I'm Russian, Polish, Czech, Hungarian, and a wee bit of Slovenian. And for today only, a wee bit of Irish--heck, EVERYONE'S Irish on St. Paddy's Day!
Hope yours is marvelous. :) Excellent write!
(((((HUGS))))) and love, Karla O'Dorman. *grins* |

I am quite an olio myself, Pea. German, French, Basque, English, Scot and Irish and I have no idea in what order. I am an American, I suppose that is the best way to describe me, since it takes a whole lot of breath to say the rest. Have a wonderful St. Pat's, Pea. I toast you back with the last of my cup of coffee. Cheers, Wheeeeee, Salude!
Take care,
Sherry |
