Poems
Aug 2018
Of
Of memories of,
home made bread
Of memorised of
poems not read
Of sounds conveying,
of ancient pain
Of folklore of -
of, Fenians slain.
Of bells of bridges
of floods of tears
Of hunger strikes
of love, of fears
Of banners blowing
of, from the wind
Of wretched clouds
of never end
Of voices, of, out
numbered crowds
Of dark of silence
of mundane shrouds
Of all of you of
all you’ve done
Of, Our Republic
of one, you've won!
You can never stop the
wind that shakes the barley.
What it actually means is this.
The field of Barley represents
the thousands of British Empire
soldiers standing in rank and file.
But the invisible wind sways
and lays them off guard.
This wind was The I.R.A.
