When Irish Eyes Are Smiling

Happy Saint Patrick's Day to all.



A day adorned in hues of green
Cool and peaceful
Quite serene
Four leaf clovers to change your luck
Green dyed beers
Two for a buck

O'Malley's Pub is the best place to go
As long as your name
Begins with an O'
When life gets tough and your feeling ravaged
Murphy's the place
For corn beef and cabbage

On Saint Patrick's Day
We all are kin
Shades unseen upon our skin
Imagine peace
By the color you choose
Opened toed sandals or pointed toed shoes

If every country
Little or big
Could dance to the tune of an old Irish jig
What a wonderful world
This would be
Brothers and sisters, one family

I "rish" Irish.

SG
Note: rish is an abbreviated for of Bengali word. Its Sanskrit root means 'envy'. The sentence would then read
I envy Irish
