AN IRISH WISH
May you always have... A sunbeam to warm you,
Good luck to charm you, And a sheltering angel
So nothing can harm you, Laughter to cheer you,
Faithful friends near you, And whenever you pray,
Heaven to hear you. May your joys Be deep and many,
May your heart be light and glad,
May you have the best St. Patrick's Day
That you have ever had!
