And a Happy St. Paddy's Day to you! I love the green and instant eye-catcher. Your words blend perfectly with the bright color of this piece--from Fergus Bay to Tullamore county. I'm Happy he found his Leprechaun in that bottle of Tullamore D.E.W. Best, JohnC

I love the adventurous feel to this poem. The descriptive images of the trek through the countryside made me seen the lush green of Ireland. Using the background color was a clever way of further embellishing that imagery. Very fun poem to read. Thank you for posting. Gretchen

I am not Irish, but I love St. Patrick's Day. I don't drink green beer, but I do like my Guinness stout. Your poem is very beautiful and I liked it very much. I wish you well in the contest.

LOLOL... You're either from Boston or Ireland, author! lol
I hear it said in plenty, that if you can still see the floor, you're not drunk. Well, I suppose the gentleman of the poem wasn't drunk at all if he could still see the gold buckles of the Leprechaun's shoes! :)
A fun poem with a fun ending!
Susan :)

This is a creative poem as you go in search of the Leprechaun in Ireland. If I ever get to Ireland now I know how to go about finding that rascal. You have go to pub and drink until he appears.

This work has reached the exceptional level

I rest assured this work of poetic art wasn't born in a day/ Very well done. Are you now or ever have been in Erin? Have you a shamrock in your pocket, and a Shillelagh by your side? Well done, and worthy of an additional star.

    Born of the sod and destined to return to the sod, I am, if nothing else, an Irishman.

    Has Erin snakes today?
reply by the author on 04-Mar-2023
    Unusual but yet true, no native snakes exist, much like New Zealnd and Greenland.

    is it the leaf, the talk or the flower/bud that is edible, and if the flower do they stain teeth? I did not give you four strs, did I?

I love this trip through Ireland- one of my favourite places! I had a grandmother who was Irish. Even the place names are romantic and magical! Just check/ edit the odd typing error eg 'Patrick' in the heading and 'shepherd' in the text.

I never met an Irishman who walked out of a bar let alone one of the little people! You must have been there to come up with the line of Irish charm so writ. May the luck of the Irish bring a bit of Dew upon your lips.

    Kaiku, I was born on the sod and the sod I someday will return, so, yes, all things Irish in my DNA... ☘️
