Poetesses Of Ireland Poem by Chris Lane

Irish poetesses look what you do!
Your words make me fall head of heels in love
With your Island nation and you.

Coast to coast
Fixed in the ocean.
Your Gaelic magic
Has: over me a spell woven.


Sheer rugged beauty
Combined with elegance refined -

I’ll have to quit
Reading your words now
So as not to entirely
Trick my mind.


A sea horse - a mermaid,
River and Glen
Never shall I forget you,
Sweet poetesses of Ireland.
