Take a Word - Green

Sure 'n it's time for the wearin' o' the green!    I've always wanted to go to Ireland, to see its magic for myself.   The Irish lass above is from Flickr Collage Images (Neefer), and the free verse is an original I wrote for a writing class last month.   I've always written rhyming verse, so this was only my second effort at free verse.  Thank you for letting me share it with you!
