The Pride Of Rathcoole Annmarie Poem by Francis Duggan

A beautiful young woman with blue eyes and shoulder length wavy hair of brown
She lives between Banteer Village and Millstreet Town
The Pride of Rathcoole Annmarie
One who does sing so beautifully.

She is surely a princess of song
One could listen to her all night long
Her voice so soulful, melodious and clear
More of her doubtless we will hear.

Annmarie O Riordan remember her name
For her's will be more than a Duhallow wide fame
With youth and beauty and a great voice and time on her side
She could become famed Worldwide.

The gift of song is a marvellous thing
The songstress who does love to sing
And she is not yet in her prime
She will only get better with time.

How could one with her but not feel impressed
To possess such a singing voice she is truly blessed
In her fan club she now does have me
Go sing it again Annmarie.
