Slainte Oakland

Soul washed by Irish Spring

pedestrian without purpose or urgency

Look upon a man you don't see everyday

RAY Man always the Flaneur

The first St Parick's day

at new Slainte

It's the Irish

benediction

when drinking

Ireland

California

 Americay

We'll all be

having the craic

with Patrick

StPatrick made StRonan

my ancestral house

Grandmere's name was

 LaCroix

Ronan means

people of the sea

We're sticking

to the Union

My middle brother

worked as a ship's carpenter

In stressful times he tells me,

just go on the water

Parking

fit for a king

It's morning in my universe

Yoshi's a very eclectic

"jazz" club

down by the railroad tracks

Now Billy Cobham

is a nameI recall

dynamic drum juggernaut

used to see often with

the Mahavishnu orchestra

Time for all us

craic heads

to gather and sing

OH

 I had a hat

when I came in

And I'll have a hat

when I go out again

Erin go bragh-less!

Celebrate StPatrick

be free from all your cares
