Donald Meikle Poet Bio

Irish Poetry

Big Bennie Davis and Joe Nally are walking down  to the pub 
 Joe's about five four and wiry.
A car pulls to the curb . The driver calls out
Hey Shorty. How do we get to Ellis street?
Nally" How did you know my name was Shorty?
Driver "I guessed"
Nally " Well guess where Ellis street is"
They went into the pub.

Keith Bickerstaffe April 3, 2009 at 4:06 PM What an appropriate title! I've had the same experience in Wales... a group of us visited a pub, far from the beaten track. When the regulars figured out we were English they spoke only in Welsh... and giggled a lot! Well done my friend!! Best wishes, Keith
