The Irish snowstorm© Tony Fallon 030118.

They say it snowed in Ireland the twenty eighth day of spring
They say it’s not too heavy and it probably will not cling
High wind and tides are promised from a visitor named Emma
With low temperatures and snow already she will be a problema
There’s more live videos on social media by the minnet
Someone sent a video of a donkey maybe ‘twas a jennet
A dog was so excited he didn’t know what else to do but bark
And there was another video of the deer in Phoenix Park
But the predictions for the next few days are not too rosy
And people are being advised to stay home and try to stay cozy
The temperature is very close to zero and goes down by the hour
And many homes around the country already have lost power
I’m sure we’ll see pictures the next few days that will be stunning
Of people walking on the streets since the busses won’t be running
They say schools will all be closed and all the big and small airports
The storm will be gone by Sunday but it’ll probably still affect sports
They say that in the center of Dublin there’s no milk or sliced pan
And you’ll have to go out to the Santry grocery of a man from Pakistan
There also is no sign of instant coffee cocoa or any boxes of tea bags

But I bet the ould fella has bottles of Guinness and plenty of fags
