Saint Padraig's Day

So, this little poem jumped out of my brain this morning;

==

Saint Patrick's Day comes 'round,
Folks see shamrocks and leprechauns
Music and drink
I see ancestors
Green landscapes of unforgiving rock
Gods and fighting men
Gaels swinging bloodied swords
Music and drink

Partially inspired by finding this painting on a google search;
