Irish Poetry Writers Forum Discussion:     Childhood

Back I strolled down memory lane
Out 'ore the Curragh plains
The stretching green as vivid
As when I left in my teens.

I journyed to the racecourse
To see the Aga Khan
Catch a glimpse of Princess Grace
And poke fun at tinker Dan.

I recall in my minds eye
Though I was barely ten
We robbed the Curragh orchard
Me and my best friend.

The army cops surrounded us
We ran like flames from hell
When caught she gave my name
So I gave hers as well.

Now I'm past the twenty mark
And blessed with much more sense
Can close my eyes and smile
At things in my past tense.

Memories write the finer points
The valued things of yore
Like the history in the 'HOLLOW'
Old Donnelly walks no more.

Ah! just a bunch of silly kids
Threading turf galore
Making fun from matching skinny pegs
In the footsteps of a giant.
