On St Patrick's Day

Today there won’t be a parade;

Concessions that Covid has made.

With no bagpipes or fifes

It’s befitting, since life’s

At a standstill from which we’ve not swayed.

 

Still, I’m wearing a bit o’ the green

Though, of course, if I had to come clean,

Being Irish I’m not

But I’ve never forgot

On St. Pat’s to become a colleen.
