A St. Patrick’s Day Tale


Dancing in the mud

on this St. Patrick’s Day

the leprechaun wishes for a sandy beach

where the skies are not gray


Shady characters

look for pots of gold

persistent in their search

dreams of riches in their souls


Seeing a pot of gold

in some bushes

fights ensue

as each one rushes


The leprechaun runs

looking up the sky

a storm is raging

appears as nigh


A break in the clouds

rays of sunshine

a rainbow appears

just in time


The leprechaun spreads some magic

there is now a dense fog

he jumps on to the rainbow

sliding out of the bog


With a joyful laugh

he watches through a bubble

the shady characters retreat

gaining nothing for their trouble
