That’s class!

This time of the year .. definitely Prague, Paris or certainly here in Dublin. With both Easter and the St. Patrick’s Day Festival coming within a week of each other, Dublin will be THE place to be :) .

Agreed.. the Fair City can be a bit pricey in places, but like any popular spot if you steer clear of the more obvious, central areas for…[Read more]

In Memory Of My Mother

I do not think of you lying in the wet clay
Of a Monaghan graveyard; I see
You walking down a lane among the poplars
On your way to the station, or happily

Going to second Mass on a summer Sunday –
You meet me and you say:
‘Don’t forget to see about the cattle – ‘

Hughes passed away mere months after it’s publication, so the sense of emotional exoneration.. the secrets of a poetic…[Read more]

Excellent Cath!
Some really great stuff being posted here ppl.. keep it up :) .

I’m in total agreement with mims on the importance of a lyrical quality to poetry – curiously enough, a vast percentage of the works posted on this thread to date bear witness to it.

Oh and grateful appreciation for the wonderful Ted Hughes poem posted by Esmeralda

Super tunes there rubyboobs :) …

I’ll be starting an All Things Irish thread for Paddy’s day coming up :D ..

Lovesong

He loved her and she loved him.
His kisses sucked out her whole past and future or tried to
He had no other appetite
She bit him she gnawed him she sucked
She wanted him complete inside her
Safe and sure forever and ever
Their little cries fluttered into the curtains

Her eyes wanted nothing to get away
Her looks nailed down his hands…[Read more]
