  • A Poem by Aidan Sharkey

    OH, WHAT A BEAUTIFUL MORNING!

    There was a touch of frost that night
    And the new day's sun on each gorse bush
    Showed dewy webs of gossamer,
    My, what a wonderous sight!

    For stretched across each bush
    And the path that ran between
    A hundred thousand silver strands
    Were reflected in the sheen.

    The gorse gave way and broke,
    A clearing lay beyond
    And there a rabbit sat
    At the edge of a glass-still pond.

    He dined upon an emerald mat
    Littered with jewels of dew;
    How many people were content as he?
    Very few, I knew.

    Now and then he would pause
    And twitching nose would scent the air
    And one hind foot would scratch an ear,
    He didn't have a care.

    I pursed my lips and made a sound
    Which caused him up to sit,
    Then raised the gun, took careful aim
    And blew his head to shit

    Hi Paddy,
    Received an email adding you as one of my friends on Bebo and said to draw on your white board, so I did. It's hard to draw on the computer; never did that before!!! Have a GREAT new year and talk to your dad a lot. Wish I had the funds, I'd come visit the old country.
    A hui ho, Cindy
