Weekly Scribblings - St. Patrick's Day

HAPPY ST. PATRICK'S DAY !!

Match Maker's Mark;  a Manx and  a Cajun

There once was a man from the Isle of Man 

Met a lady from Louisiana 

Almost love at first sight was this affair 

Soon they were married 'twas five months later 

All went well like a match made in Heaven 

But another month bloody H broke loose 

It was March 17, St. Patrick's Day 

She ran him out of the house with her broom 

Then they stopped, under the oak tree they talked 

Jo said, "You look like a clown wearing green

The girls will talk of my freak, I'll be scorned" 

It's an honor thing you too can wear green 

Honor St. Patrick on his day with green 

He drove the snakes away from Ireland 

"Well you aren't Irish, I married a Manx  

This Cajun's French, no Irish stuff for me"

This was the start, Cajun French friend gave in  

And the Manx only wore green only in neckties  

Not to tell Cajun wife, the pools he  bets 

Bit of his old life, he's betting Guinness
