Green Day!
by Roger W Hancock
Green day... what, hey…
environmental day of green?
No! It’s Saint Patrick’s Day;
this day wear the Irish green.
Remember the fairy tail land,
father’s home of Irish green.
Skip across the blarney stone,
wary of the algae green.
An Irish kiss upon the cheek,
for lassie with no pinch of green.
A little pinch upon the thigh,
“ouch” said lad; forgot his green.
This day, from the Irish fairyland,
leprechaun’s shamrock green.
Those of Irish blood demand,
just a little pinch of green.

Gold 'n Green
by Roger W Hancock
Leprechaun's decoy,
gold the rich of Irish Green,
hidden in plain sight.

Catch a Rainbow |
Rainbow's Gold
by Roger W Hancock
Rainbow's gold,
elusive black pot,
find the Irish elf.
A leprecaun to spot,
by gold clasp,
and garb of green.
Top-hat of irish green,
black hat band,
with golden buckle,
Green wool coat,
with black belt,
another golden buckle.
Green velvet shirt,
black bow tie,
golden buttons.
Green trousers,
black leather belt,
with one gold buckle.
Green boots,
with black straps,
two golden buckles.
Pilliaged black pot,
rainbow's gold,
gold clasp on irish green.
When you reach,
a rainbow's end,
gold is never there.

Saint Patrick's Day
by Roger W Hancock
Immigrant green of Ireland,
ingredient of the melting pot.
Wear the green, lest be pinched,
celebrate, Saint Patty's Day!

St. Patty's Gold
by Roger W Hancock
St Patty's Day upon the Green,
with my lassie girl so fair.
The smile 'neath green bonnet,
is a rainbow's pot of gold.

Mischief Green
by Roger W Hancock
The greatest jest of mischief green,
is the pot-o-gold, at rainbow's end.
When you hear the leprechaun laugh,
the pot has moved, the gold's in green.
