Poetry Schmoetry. I’ve Got Ireland On the Brain.

There once was a poet named Janiel
Who couldn’t rhyme with appeal
“As a poet,” she said,
“I’m legally dead.”
So she quit and went to Ireland, because, like, it’s gorgeous.


I mean, wouldn’t you? Check it out:




Most of our Halloween traditions came from the Emerald Isle – along with several hundred thousand Irish immigrants. Also a great love of potatoes, colcannon, soda bread, and corned beef. Not to mention Leprechauns and Artemis Fowl. Seriously. I am starting a new campaign. It’s called: “I’m Going To Ireland If It Killarney’s Me.”  (get it? get it?)

Feel free to contribute. I repay in poetry.
(Note: The thinly veiled references to poetry in this post have to do with the under appreciated yet mostly brilliant and nearly publishable poem in my last post. And the vast abilities which allowed me to create it. And my full intention to continue writing poetry. Maybe. But going to Ireland is a for-sure.)

My greatest pleasure in life has been raising my four excellent children--some of whom liked me so much that they keep coming back. My second greatest pleasure has been doing whatever I can to make people laugh and create bright moments. I hope to do a bit more good in the world before I go the way of it. And if not, I'd better at least get to spend some serious time writing and singing in a castle somewhere in the UK.
