After The Night Before Poem by Liam ó Comáin

After The Night Before



Awakening early
recalling incidents
of the night before:
the pubs,
the friends,
the girls...

Dressed and out
into the darkness,
the impact of frost
revealing breath.

Crow startled!

Glints of sun
causing a
slackening
of stride...
increasing sounds
with increasing light.

In the rising landscape-
a frosty stubble...
so cold... as I recall
the night before....
