A Rugged Place Poem by Liam ó Comáin

A Rugged Place

Rating: 5.0


rock and heather
is the mantle
of this place
wild goats roam
its heights
grey dark clouds
entomb its sky
a desolate
donegal highland

a roof less school
stands to the left
of a corner within
sight of a few
huddled cottages

the alma mater
of previous
generations
now scattered
throughout the globe

a community
dispersed
leaving a few
to live out its demise

it is a rugged place
