Beyond Ben Bulbens Beauty
By Paul McCann
Once more I will go , beyond County Sligo , to a vision of Ben Bulbens delight . Where twelve misty Bens over green grassy glens , touched the pilgrims prayers in heavenly flight . It's there can be heard the Gaels soft spoken word , like a rapturous song perfectly sung . Thick clouds have been found around this holy ground, upon twelve peaks strange shadowy shapes have clung . A mysterious sight welcomes all those who might , find their way to a nights star clustered show . Majestic the sight from its depth to it's height, God has cradled with heavens soft glow . Such beauty is rare, you can never compare , all you can say is my God glory be . If your mind is set to be where prayers are met , beyond Ben Bulben please say one for me . |

Write about Ireland and you're a winner with me. Yeats awaits.

I've been remiss of late

so many distractions at home - garden renovation, plague of rats and de-cluttering have precluded my reading others' work anyhow all that is, mercifully, done with - I enjoyed your poem greatly
