Memories of growing up in Ardoyne during the 1960’s troubles of Northern Ireland .

Remembering The War
by Paul McCann
.
I remember being bombed ,
I remember being scared ,
I can ever remember walking away .

I remember being shot at .
I remember someone said ,
“As long as you hear the bang you’re ok .“

I remember houses being burned
and people being spurned
as security forces closed their eye .

I remember all my friends who have died
and the mothers who have cried.
I remember as time goes by .

Terrible that you had to go through this after World War II and what that did to Europe and the British Isles. But old hatreds die hard. I certainly hope that Ireland is out of the woods these days, but I do sense that some of it is coming back again.

Glad that I don't have terrible memories like that.

Absolutely gut-wrenching, my friend. Loved every word of this wonderful, if sad, thoughts of yesterday.
