The Emerald Isle!As green and as beautiful as Ireland is, It's a place I've always longed to see, And one day, I promised myself… That Emerald Isle would be visited by me! And now it seems my time has come! A visit is due this year! I will mix with the Irish, a language I love, A link to my family over many a past year! For the Murphy's and Killen's are descendants- Of my family, on both parents side! And so one day I swore to myself, I would visit Ireland with pride! And so the time is nearing, When that dream will come to pass for me! And I will wander through the place- The place that I long to see! I'll whisper ‘good morning' to the Leprechauns! And bid them all good day! And peep here and there, and hope… That I will see them as I travel on my way! And if I see a toadstool, I shall rest a while and wait about, You never know, so I am told… When those leprechauns may come out! And I shall look for a 4 leaf clover! A thing I have looked for; for many a day, But never once in all that time… Has a 4 leaf clover come my way! I believe in Fairies and Leprechauns! And I am not superstitious at all! In fact, I have to say it! I've read of them from when I was small! I may even get to meet a famous Irish poet! Oh roll on the days to the Emerald Isle! But for now, I will quietly dream… Of Ireland! And for me, the land of smile! So take me down the river… Were the water meets the place I want to be! And the whispers all around of beauty, Will be the only beauty that I will see! That Good Old Emerald Isle... Called; Ireland! Poetry Ad-Free Upgrades Vote for this poem |
