This is probably one of my most favorite St. Patrick's Day-themed poems I've heard! You can just hear the characters and feel the atmosphere.

Thanks for sharing!

Hahahaha! I knew it! I knew Irene was going to be a beautiful Irish Setter, I just knew it! (probably because it is a dog I would want if I were young Sean...LOL) What a charming poem! I love the limerick style of it, as well as the story and the dialect. Best of luck in the contest. :)

I loved you poem. It was well written and the rhymes weren't forced . My grandfather was Irish and had a great sense of humor, he would tell stories like this. Your poem is funny. I've been married twice and have always owned a dog. Maybe Sean will be happier with Irene.

This poem, The Wee Folks Joke, has a fun meter and rhyme which bring the readers through to the jolly conclusion where the boy gets a dog. Good fun...............................................................

Well composed and witty poem. The colour theme is perfect for the competition. I particularly like that, at least in my own head, I hear an Irish accent when I read your poem. The dialogue is unique. Great effort and best of luck.
