March dribbles - 20

Are there snakes in Ireland?
Or worms
That wriggle and squirm?
Children cry.
Three-leafed clovers for truth
Four-leafed luck but
Here’s five?
Are there snakes?
The invader
Leaf-arms and leaf-legs and one head
Takes the kids from their beds.
Should’ve driven out clover dear Saint
Let the green-snake grass grow.
