I wish celebrants a happy St. Patrick's day, hope they all have a good time and don't nurse a hang-over tomorrow.

Happy St. Patrick's day to you too and everybody else.

Happy St Paddy's!

Wishing you a rainbow
For sunlight after showers—
Miles and miles of Irish smiles
For golden happy hours—
Shamrocks at your doorway
For luck and laughter too,
And a host of friends that never ends
Each day your whole life through!

I am not Irish; but, when I was younger I celebrated this day.
Now that I am old man, my body just cannot put up with stuff.
I knew a British chap, who always wore Orange on this date.

Happy St. Paddy's day to all.
The corned beef was cooked last night. The carrots, potatoes and cabbage is cooking as I write this. It smells so good around here and we are really looking forward to our dinner. No beer,

Lots of good songs to go along with the day.

Don, thank you for the beautiful song and pictures, too. Danny Boy always makes my throat tighten and brings tears to my eyes.

And Robb, thank you for the lovely poem; may it hold true for all of us--Irish or not.

As the Irish saying says, (I think), "May you be in Heaven a half an hour, before the Devil even knows you're dead". Something like that, anyway. :-)

Just in case... I didn't write that. It's just a cut and paste. The other one that comes to mind, is not what I wish. But it's fairly famous.

“May those who love us, love us; and those who don't love us, may God turn their hearts; and if He doesn't turn their hearts, may he turn their ankles so we'll know them by their limping.”

I had a really good time at the GP St. Pats party, with poetry, song, sayings and pics. I know it's late but I wanted to bring some food. Lol.

West gardener, it's never too late for good food; hope you ate that beautiful plateful.
