I wrote a poem about St. Patrick’s Day

While I was researching the poem, I found some interesting things about St. Patrick and Irish myths. The only things I included in the poem I wrote today were leprechauns and banshees, neither of which St. Patrick encountered while he was in Ireland.

St. Patrick's Day is the day the Saint died in about 461 A.D. I also found out he arrived in Ireland when he was 16 years old. It seems Irish raiders kidnapped him and took as a slave to Ireland. I'll write more about St. Patrick in a later entry.
