This is my latest creation. The Pink for England, White for Scotland and the Green for Ireland.
The tricolor was the subject of a poem and a song composed by Michael Francis Howley in 1903:
The pink, the rose of England shows,
The green St. Patrick's emblem, bright
While in between, the spotless sheen
of Andrew's Cross, displays the white.
This is just the beginning of the poem.
