Thanks again, Dolly. Didn't mean to burst any bubbles. I adore St. Patrick - a great man, just not Irish.

Great entry for the St. Patrick's day competition, It is a fun lively poem great rhyme and words. I studied Celtic RE at school so I knew he wasn't Irish, but a lot of people don't know that. Thank you for sharing , good luck

Comment from Susan Newell
This is nice poetic history of how St. Patrick came to "save" Ireland and convert the Irish people to Christianity. It would help if you used advanced editor and larger type. Some of us have a hard time with tiny, narrow print. I wonder though, about the stories I heard that he had rid Ireland of snakes. True, or metaphor for driving out Eden's serpent?

Thanks for your suggestion re type size. Being Irish, I regard all tales about St. Patrick to be Gospel whether they're true or not. I've heard that St. Patrick's Day is a much bigger deal in America than in Ireland. Thansks again for the kind words.
