A Long Way From Here From The Old Paps Of Shrone Poem by Francis Duggan

A Long Way From Here From The Old Paps Of Shrone



A long way from here from the old Paps of Shrone
And from Gortavehy with the face of stone
From Mushera and Caherbarnagh and Clara Hill
And Inchaleigh and the ever babbling Glasheen rill
That to the Finnow ever flows on it's way
Along the Claraghatlea -Inchaleigh border by night and by day
And a long way from here from where the Cails and Finnow does meet
In the rushy fields near the Town of Millstreet
And a long way from here to Gneeves mountain bog
That in Winter often wears a cloak of grey fog
And a long way from here this far Southern Shore
To the high woodland and fields of green Claramore
And a long way from here in miles far away
From the old house by the stream where i first saw light of day.
