St. Patrick's Day Limerick Link Up

Happy St. Patrick's Day!

Hope you are out enjoying the day with all things Irish.

Join up today for a simple Limerick link up.

Limerick #1

St. Patrick's Day is here

No need to walk with fear

Be bold with green

Make sure it's seen

And avoid a pinch on the rear

Limerick #2

Our Leprechaun hunt is on

We've looked all over the lawn

He might be here,

He might be there

We'll catch him before he's gone

Limerick #3

Thirsty from near and far

Drink green beer at the bar

Bailey's and cream
A Jameson dream
Don't ride in the policeman's car

Shamrock Suncatcher
