The Bells Of St Davids Poem by Francis Duggan

Above the potato fields from here far away
The bells of St Davids can be heard today
Their loud peals re-echoing in the gray sky
They ring in my memory from Seasons gone by
The mewing of the gulls lives in my memory
Above the cliffs of Lleithy overlooking the sea
And from the Atlantic blows the cool winds of rain
When memories of coastal Wales i do visit again
We only have the memories of what used to be
In fancy the potato fields of St Davids i do see
In mid Spring the green potato stalks after recent showers
Are covered in beautiful pink and white flowers
And the bells of St Davids in fancy i hear
Echoing in the sky in the Spring of the year.
