In Keeping With the Day
May the rains sweep gentle across your fields, May the sun warm the land, May every good seed you have planted bear fruit, And late summer find you standing in fields of plenty.
My the road rise up to meet you, May the sun always be on your face and the wind at your back. And may you be in heaven five minutes, Before the devil knows you're dead!
And thank you for your blessing, Frank Family. I've copied it so I can read it and smile while the summer sun bakes the soil into bricks, the hail storms rip through fragile plant leaves and the deer eat what's left in the garden! Seems to happen every year, LOL!

I like the one that says "may you be in heaven half an hour before the devil knows you're dead" as well.
Oh, aye! May the road rise up to meet you, and the wind be always at your back!
My the road rise up to meet you,
May the sun always be on your face and the wind at your back.
And may you be in heaven five minutes,
Before the devil knows you're dead!
