He held a three-leafed clover,

Green with living, told

The gold of heaven’s majesty

All-giving.

Rainbow’s promises

Were mystery or the ark

Where snake departs.

I'm still learning to understand poetry, but I like this one.

Simple and direct, interlaced with fabulous myths

Golden.

St. Patrick surely is surrounded by myth and legend!

I read into your verse my belief the Ark tale in the scriptures, from many religions, is instructive metaphor.
