Hi, I work for the BBC in Belfast and am working on a documentary to mark Seamus Heaney's 70th birthday. His work is studied (and written about in exams) by people all over the world and I am trying to find out what impact it has them. In this poem he writes about events in his childhood in Co Derry - yet it clearly has a resonance today. I would love to hear anyone's comments on what Heaney's poetry means to them. Tell me about individual poems that have made an impact on you and why!
Cheers,

We acted this poem out in school. I was a frog. That was a weird day. But the poem is good

In reply to your question about whether it reads 'sails' or 'snails', well i'm currently studying it for my GCSE exam on Tuesday and in our copy of the anthology it reads 'sails' which i guess would make way more sense than 'snails'! what versions have you come across that say 'snails'?

their loose necks pulsed like snails
some versions read
their loose necks pulsed like sails
Which is correct?
