It’s a cinch-

If you’re not wearing green today, you are going to get a pinch.

(Happy St. Patrick’s Day)

 

Modern Mother Goose-On The Loose (A Special Invitation)

Green-

On the scene.

.

The river dyed-

The hair too, true and tried.

.

A prepared dish-

The color of fingernail polish.

.

Necklaces and bracelets worn-

Always a new thing born.

.

Snakes are also green-

No longer in Ireland seen.

.

As a special person drove them away-

Enough for a celebration on St. Patrick’s Day.

.

Had St. Patrick lived today-

An invitation, to my yard would

have been mailed today.

.

For a snake free yard would be grand-

Surely much agreement would be on hand.

.

Green-

On the scene.

=========================

First one not too hard-

To remember to “spring”  that clock, one hour forward.

 

Modern Mother Goose-On The Loose # 495 (Green On The Scene)

It’s a cinch-

To get a pinch.

.

If not seen-

Wearing green.

.

For underway today-

Is St. Patrick’s Day.

.

Green here-

Green everywhere.

.

Green bows-

Green painted toes.

.

Green eyes-

Natural we summize.

.

Green rivers-

Green snakes that sliver.

.

It’s a cinch-

To get a pinch.

Modern Mother Goose-On The Loose # 742 (St. Patrick’s Day)

As a child, I always looked forward to St. Patrick’s Day-
Especially as the parades and the celebrations got underway.
.
But the best part of the holiday scene-
Was catching someone at school, not wearing green.
.
The majority of us prepared ourselves at least a day ahead-
Because not wearing green could turn into quite a dread.
.
Getting pinched was not something to look forward to-
So to avoid the issue, we’d do whatever we had to do.
.
Whether it be wearing a green shirt-
Or green earrings, or a green skirt.
.
Or a green necklace, or a green ring-
Basically we could get by with just about anything.
.
But if one wanted to use their green eyes, it was a cinch-
That it didn’t count and it would lead to that dreaded pinch.
.
St. Patrick, may have driven the snakes away-
But if you weren’t wearing green, it would not be your lucky day.
.
Of course until I got grown, I always wanted to travel over that rainbow-
To find the pot of gold at the end of it, a story that we all well know.
.
May we all have the luck of the Irish, as our rivers flow green-
Amongst the shamrocks, green ale, leprechauns, and corn beef sandwiches
that will be heavily seen.

.

As a child, I always looked forward to St. Patrick’s Day-
Especially as the parades and the celebrations got underway.
