In honour of St. Patrick’s Day, Bono decided to write a poem about Ukraine. It made its way to US House Majority Leader Nancy Pelosi and she read it. Twitter has some thoughts.

Speaker Pelosi reads #StPatricksDay poem by Bono, which reads in part:

"Ireland's sorrow and pain
Is now the Ukraine
And Saint Patrick's name now Zelenskyy."

She then introduces Riverdance. pic.twitter.com/NzPY1VP2bN
