No Redemption

I wander the hills Where the wild winds blow And curse the gods for their tyranny For is their ire fair or just For the lies I told Or the names I cursed Now my feet are sinking in the mire My head is screaming And my heart is on fire The whole world stops and stares And whispers gently There's no redemption here

You are new to me, but I see you have been here some time Paul. I have my roots in your homeland and have visited Ireland three times. The beauty of it inspires poetry. I enjoyed your first post and will keep reading...Aloha, Connie ; )
