Smaragdine ... Craic

Today's word is "smaragdine" smuh-RAG-din ... emerald-green in color. (Dictionary.com)


Craic
Tiny, crabby men in green,
A Blarney Stone of fame,
Smaragdine hills and valleys,
A brogue in your family name.

'Tis the day of Irish pride,
Of shamrocks and green beer,
A heritage to celebrate,
To St. Patrick raise a cheer!
