Gabriel Rosenstock's bilingual limerick in praise of Louise Richardson, Dame Commander of the British Empire, 
appointed by the Irish Government (sic!) as Chairperson of its Consultative Forum on International Security Policy.

will Ireland stay neutral - like the Swiss
or join NATO, then go on the piss?
         it's being discussed at a Forum
         with Hibernian decorum
and the Chair -  she's a proper little Miss! *

* Dame Commander of the British Empire, Louise Richardson

an bhfanfaimid ar nós na hEilvéise
nó bheith in NATO inár staicín áiféise
                 nárbh fhearr a bheith neodrach
                 a Louise, is a bheith spleodrach
 mar a bhís-se fadó ins na Déise?
