An Irish Blessing


An Irish Blessing

May the road rise to meet you
May the wind be always at your back
May the sun shine warm upon your face
The rains fall soft upon your fields
And until we meet again
May God hold you in the palm of His hand

My cousin Beatty took me to a place called Knock and on the way we passed this cute thatched roof cottage. While we were there she bought me a "tea towel" and on it is this famous Irish Blessing. I love it but secretly wish it was a potholder (see Hafway (Back) Home posting for explanation).
