I enjoyed reading your travel through Ireland. I really liked the imagery that you portray.
Just one small typo ... You need a space between Shannon and Bridge.
Best of luck in the competition. Jen

Jenintorre, thanks but actually Shannonbridge is the name of a village in county Offaly, Ireland. Known for other things, as well, as Shannonbridge pottery. ☘️☘️

I love the Irishness of your poem.
And that leprechaun you saw, you saw him because you were drunk, I assume?
Thanks for sharing and good luck in the contest.

Sounds like you know the locale pretty well. I like your rhymes but I couldn't quite get the flow going without the knowledge of the territory myself, I think, I don't know. Beautiful St. Paddy's poem.

Comment from mermaids
This is a fun poem and I like how you finally saw the leprechaun after imbibing. You have a vivid use of words that describes your journey, the reader feels like she is there with you. This is an excellent St Patrick's Day poem.

Comment from Aussie
****** six virtual stars because this is an absolutely, brilliantly rhyming poem from Ireland! It takes us on a journey in search of the Leprechaun, through counties mentioned we did not know. Finally, drunk as a skunk his buckles did glow! Good luck in the contest (doubt you will need it) most enjoyable tale. Next one about the four-leaf clover or St Patrick and the snakes? K xx

Comment from CrystieCookie999
This has an authentic feel to it. You have definitely got more Ireland references than I have heard of. Nice job on the form. My favorite lines were these: Across hills and dales along sheep-dog trails
deep in midlands
It had nice 's' consonance going on and internal rhyme as well.

Comment from ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova
That was a fun read. And it seems that you found your leprechaun at the end of a very interesting rainbow. Keep up the great writing. And have a safe weekend.

Comment from Dawn Munro
What a fair delight, I shall dare to say,
as this poet seeks leprechauns, and on the way
pauses to imbibe an old Irish brew...
(Did he really stop at just one or two?)
:) What a fun read! Thank you for sharing.

Comment from dragonpoet
Hi,
This seemed a long trek to find a mythical being. Though it seems if you had a beer at the beginning, you would not have needed to make the journey at all. I like the poems rhyme and flow and the green background for St Patrick's Day.
Good luck in the contest.
Keep writing and stay healthy.
