Looking For Green . . . .

 
in all the right places . . .
 
 
stems of green
 
 
roddie buds
dripping wet 
fog filled spruce
 
 
pockets of snow
red twig against green
 
 
first blush of green leaf
pushing through snow and ice
 
 
natural light green
peach and brown color
of saved blown eggs
from many years ago
 
 
green chapel door
near bantry of ireland
surrounded with
green holly
and
green leaf fronds
of
crocosmia
 
 
they are each 
 part of the
irish garden house
world that i enjoy sharing
with each of you
 
the fuzzy photo was taken at a movie event
a few weeks ago
and i copied it from
our irish american society newsletter
 
i love my green
although this is not one of my
famous irish sweaters
 
 


this weekend
my friend
babs and i
will be joining others
at a
meet up
in
naperville, illinois
penny
who i met through babs
last year
will also be joining us



i will be bringing a bit of my
shamrock life
and
irish luck

i am looking forward
to some fresh ideas
and
meeting
many
new
friends
 


and if you come back to visit me
i will tell you
once again
my story of
the little lost
irish boy
found 
 
thank you
to each of my
new followers
and each of you
who have been with me
for many days, weeks, months
 
love
lynne

Lovely post, Lynne! The blogger meet sounds like fun! You found lots of pretty green. The little boy is cute, what his story? I am going to Ireland, maybe next year. Maybe I will see a green door too. Have a happy day! Top of the morning to you!

Gorgeous photos. The ice rink has drained. We are all ready for fresh green grass and treehouse adventures. Welcome spring!

I'm looking forward to some corned beef and cabbage Sunday. And because we are so German I will make kuchen for dessert.

That would be a really fun event to attend Lynne. I hope you have an awesome time meeting other bloggers! I love green but the only green here is the softwood trees. ;)

Good Morning Lynne
and Greetings from Ireland

I just wanted to pop by and wish you
a very Happy St. Patrick's Day.

May you always have
Walls for the winds,
A roof for the rain,
Tea beside the fire,
Laughter to cheer you,
Those you love near you,
And all your heart might desire!

Lynne, it was so lovely to meet you! Thank you so much for the adorable shamrock. I have it hanging from the key that sticks out of my small vintage china cabinet. My husband is half Irish, so this little shamrock is perfect. Although, I've heard that everyone's Irish on St. Patrick's Day! I'm looking forward to exploring more of your blog. I just became your newest follower.
