Poem

An initiative unforeseen
Supported by the Countess Aberdeen
Motivated several politicians and were
Encouraged to convene

In the year of 1920
When issues were aplenty
Delegates backed the Cork City charter
And elected MacSwiney, our dear martyr
Yet as many were to grieve
Others would also leave

They were faced with a new mandate
Upon founding the Irish Free State
However not everyone was happy
And things got rather scrappy
With views diverging ever-more
Making it hard to keep the score

The dust took a while to settle
And tested our civic institutions’ mettle
Though issues were left unsolved
Causing city councils to be dissolved

New problems were to be addressed
That would get the people rousing
Occupied with public works and housing
Making the managers obsessed.

That’s an oversimplification
For a topic deserving of dilation
An overview of a creation
Being the Municipal Association
