And on her behind,
For the sake of the blind,
Was the same information in Braille!

There are only two kinds of people in the world, The Irish
And those who wish they were.

Don't ya just love a wee Irish limerick...
It's kinda strange--I remember when I was a little girl, Dad would tell me our ancestry included the Black Irish...as though it were a bad thing, to be whispered about.
ReplyDeleteThe black Irish were the small brown people with blue eyes and black hair, who lived in the hills of Ireland.
I rather like the idea of these amazing fey people in my ancestry.
Aye, there definitely be some fey in us!
ReplyDeleteLove the limerick, dear sister-o-mine!
