My Land (Ireland) Poem by Paul Trotter

A vision beheld by passions light
Familiar known to me my seducer
Enchanting mistress dream giver
Vindicate me bring revelation to emotion
Openly grappled to my life's blood
Deceptively hidden from view
Seen but not seen
Teasing me with beauty
Snatching away from affection
You are my legacy
Sweetly your voice carries
Infiltrating the core of my existence
Boldly my soul bellows continue with me
Captivate me with your love
Belong to me and me only
Link to my past discerned in silence
Courage brought to life, destroyer of fear
Essence of living decorate my soul
Birth in me again and bring forth new life
You are my heart's desire freely given


By Paul Trotter, Warrior Poet
