Happy St. Patrick’s Day

A tulip popped out of the ground. 
It made sure no one was around. 
It took off its shirt.
Which fell in the dirt. 
It turned red without making a sound. 


I had a wooden shoe. 
It was quite new. 
I put it on my feet.
They felt really neat.
How they both fit in, I haven't a clue.


Red is a colour I like.
It is the colour of my new bike.
I rode it to the bar.
Thought it would be safer than driving my car. 
Now, onward home, I hike.

There was a hat on my head 
Last night, when I went to bed. 
My husband laughed. 
He thought me daft.
Now, there is a pot on his head.
