Camogie Poem by Francis Duggan

Camogie hurling played by women it is such a beautiful game
As hurling played by males not as famous though it does deserve an equal fame
Suppose in sports women will never be seen as equal to men and this at least does seem a shame
It is a man's World as is often said and things as they are will stay the same
And women will not be seen as equal to men not in my lifetime anyway
Hurling like most sports is seen as a man's game as it always was it is today
But i enjoy watching camogie as a game in a class of it's own
Though camogie hurling played by women as male hurling not as well known
I love watching women play hurling they play it with finesse and skill
Though all sports played by males is more popular this is how it is and always will
Be for as long as there is male and female human kind
Supposed this is a fact of human life a fact of to which i am resigned
I prefer to watch women playing hurling than watching males play in this i am in minority
But males in all sports seen as superior to women and this is how it always will be
