While sitting sub lime
limbs could drop one on your head;
time to make limeade
It's a lot like lemonade
except it's St Patrick's green

It’s St. Patrick’s green
some folks will wear every year
but I’ve seldom seen
a saloon or bar near here
that will stock and serve green beer.

When power leads man toward arrogance, poetry reminds him of his limitations. When power narrows the areas of man's concern, poetry reminds him of the richness and diversity of his existence. When power corrupts, poetry cleanses.
John Fitzgerald Kennedy



Kindness is a seed sown by the gentlest hand, growing care's flowers.

socks to sieve green beer?
did they take out the color
or just stain stockings?
are you an alcoholic
or a very green drinker?

Agreeing drinkers
say beer is amber or brown.
There are few thinkers
who care what color they down
as long as their problems drown.

long to drown problems
in a tankard of cold beer?
it just doesn't work
even though you may forget
'til you wake with hangover

Hangover from wake
to remember a good friend
is a big mistake.
That result you can amend
for you’ve seen how it may end.

saw how it would end
and left the movie early;
hate predictable
date preferred predictable
so she said it was our last
