After the Solstice, when
darkness descended on the
Hiber-Nation their literary
retreat began.

Genius drinkers commenced,
from wells of wisdom, which
were deep in the evergreen
thought forests.

Hidden Hedge Schools*, honed
the poets, who primed the
populous from tempered anvils,
at the Wordsmiths Forge.

For Padraigh Pearse
1879 - 1916.
Executed by British.

I say British, because The Scots and Welsh
were every bit as big a ******* as the English.
The English banned education in
Ireland, secret schools* were set up
in forests, Priests were put to death
if caught in the process of teaching.

The Irish will never forget.
