The Legend of Saint Patrick

(from Irish sayings)

Good St. Patrick travelled far, to teach God's Holy Word

And when he came to Erin's sod, a wondrous thing occurred

He plucked a shamrock from the earth and held it in His hand

To symbolise the Trinity that all might understand

The first leaf for the Father

And the second for the Son

The third leaf for the Holy Spirit

All three of them in one.

 

(as a "Murphy" myself, I can especially relate to this one!)

MURPHY's LAW

Nothing is as easy as it looks.

Everything takes longer than you expect.

And if anything can go wrong,

It will, at the worst possible moment.

 

(...and, since I married an Irishman...this one ...LOL)

There are only three kinds of Irish men who can't understand women—

young men,

old men,

and men of middle age.

 

Happy St Patrick's Day flickr friends!

Erin Go Bragh!
