We would run in a race to Dublin 
The way we were, we could not begin.

Me, I was stuck in mud to my chin.

I have a sibling somewhere in Dublin
When I miss her I jump in a wheelie bin
And pen her a limerick

Ah, the Irish city of Dublin!
Sure 'tis always bustlin' and rumblin'!
And, at times, when it rains,
folks try not to complain,
in spite of the puddlin' and bubblin'!

Why Not

There once was a man from Olde Dublin
Whose wife said all that he did was a sin
      So he said, "Just as well,
      If I'm already going to hell."
And later that night did her in.

Dublin

Dublin city 
Along the quays 
Over the bridge 
Across the liffey 
North and South divide.

The amount of Oasis being played was troublin',
We drank one after t'other
Till we stopped hearing those brothers,
But in the morning our stomachs were bubblin'

The Bells of Dublin

Church bells forged in the 
flames of Irish history
Reign down in a full-circle ring 
on crowded streets
Echo through soul worn cobble 
stone half lit alleys 
Bringing the gap where the 
past and present meet.

Premium Member A Favorite In Dublin Town

Scottish Highland calf was a favorite in Dublin Town.
We loved his temperament, he was up, never down.
He bathed in roses, daisies, and autumn leaves, so brown.
King of kindness was his title, given along with a crown.

Imagine letting a necromancer 
give a speech in Trinity college Dublin 
it's so sad to see backwards peddling jesters
getting a podium about lowers education standards 
under a civilised opinion to address false tongues

Premium Member Celtic Daydream


There was an old man who marched in Dublin,
danced to malachite past, wore shammocks lean.
            Guinness stout in clinking glass
            he drank whole night en masse.
Through the day he dreamed Celtic dreams umpteen.

Silence

Bone damp silence pervades
A dark winter's night
On the streets of Dublin
Old tired bones rustle under cardboard
Dank smells of human neglect
Of excrement, sweat and hunger
No joyous laughter here
Just desperation, pain
And lonliness

Premium Member colleens gifts

her sagacious disposition fared well in this Celtic family
Colleen had the gifts of clairaudience and clairvoyance
some said she could see flirty flitting faeries in Dublin Woods
Irritating me, for I thought I was the only one who saw them.

A MAN CALLED PILATE

A man called Pontius Pilate
In order to prevent a riot
Had Jesus killed
The Scriptures fulfilled
Now Christians need not be quiet

Dublin

Two days in,
Me and you,
Hard celtic
Strays betray
No truth, stone,
shrine or statue,
Viking hearts and
Weathered youth,
Healing green eyes,
How i love you.

Your streets lure me
Like arteries to heart,
Through our Troubles,
Together, home.
Form: Sonnet

James Joyce

O tell me about a snoddy gumboot
Of a soul; black as Guiness -
A drinker of dirty water; a wordsmith,
A conjurer and fumbler; bearer of
Levity and pork sausages, a stout
Fellow with the learning as big as
The Cork and Kerry Mountains;
You thrown-out words of Dublin...
