Took a trip to the Emerald Isle
forewarned to beware
its captivating spell
still capture me it did.
Following footsteps of those who tread the path before
listening to whispers, searching for ghosts
echoing strains of melancholy tunes
misty clouds on mountains
shadows counting heads of sheep.
Behind gypsy gates
wild daisies cover mossy walls
where faces known as well as my own
suggest a story never told
and mysteries reveal themselves
across silent fields of stone.
Carefully crafted grey rock heart
waits
on a sandy shore in Aran
like coins in a fountain
keeping wishes safe
will I ever return
Will I ever leave?
