grimm poetry

What do you mean you never heard of the Black Irish???

Thursday, March 16, 2006


Poem Artwork


open the forbidden box?
you just catch a deadly pox:

choose the incorrect direction?
just might die of staph infection:

offend a little leprechaun?
then count your luck forever gone

ignore a wistful 4-leaf clover?
simple life may soon be over:

& if your brisket's nice and lean,
make sure it's never ever-green!

Great poem Ma'am. In Savannah we all claim to be green on St. Patrick's Day but for some reason "that old black magic" keeps on shinging through anyhow:-)

Cynth'ya,

There is wisdom in your humorous verse...especially offending leprechauns and green meat. :) LOL Enjoyed this one--well done!

Happy St. Patrick's day to you, and yes, I've heard of Black Irish. The best kind to be. :)

Great seeing you again, and sure enjoyed talking to you the other day.

((((HUGS)))) and love, Karla.
