Short Half Step Poems

A bird has landed

Your steps so measured, soft and slow,
Through Irish streets where neon glows,
While I match pace, half-step behind,
Your gentle rhythm fills my mind.

As Newbridge glows through Darragh's rain,
Like Naevis' light through darkened skies,
Where æ-dreams dance and harmonize.

From Milner Square to Kildare far,
Your spirit bridges every space,
My anchor home, my Mary Grace.
