#MythologyMonday
I’ve an abiding affection & affinity to Áine, Irish deity of Love, possibly because my ancestral roots lie in Limerick, where her cult began. The Faery Queen of the Tuatha Dé Danann, bringer of light, love & magic. Gifts I seek to convey in the stories I tell.
Day 11 of 30 Days of Draconequus: Limerick! She's one of my older characters but I finally gave her a redesign bc I wasn't clicking much with her old one. She's very much a creature of mischief and only speaks in limericks and riddles. She can be hard to understand but (1/2) #MLP
#daybreak #roblox #robloxdaybreak Taylor and Callum Fanart because I have an obsession with daybreak on roblox atm again @DaybreakRblx
I headcanon Callum as Irish bc I'm Irish and I like him so he's Irish!!bet he's from Dublin or limerick tho
Now it gets serious. @neilhimself and @GailSimone have generously agreed to sign prints of the limericks they penned for previous Insane Charity Bike Rides. A $750 pledge gets you everything from the $500 level, plus *both* signed prints! (10 available)

not everyone knows that @DolORiordan,singer of @The_Cranberries,played on the school's camogie team during the years of the @LHCfcj in #Limerick, preferring it to the sport of hockey. So we started this project: can be the realization of a dream of many girls to love this sport

#FolkloreThursday
An elderly man called Keith,
Mislaid his set of false teeth.
They'd been laid on a chair,
He'd forgot they were there,
Sat down, and was bitten beneath.
- Old Irish Limerick
“There was an old man of Dumbree, who taught little owls to drink tea; For he said, ‘To eat mice, is not very proper or nice’, That amiable Man of Dumbree.” #NationalLimerickDay

There was a cartographer named Bart
The land and the oceans did chart
He mapped them all
But instead of a ball 🌍
He turned the world into a heart❤️

“And hand in hand, on the edge of the sand,
They danced by the light of the moon.”
― Edward Lear, author of The Owl and the Pussycat, was born #OTD in 1812. Although best known for his nonsensical poems & limericks, Lear was also an accomplished painter & composer.
