It struck me to the core when I heard about, the stand they are making..'
And the dismissal from (drainstream media) speaks of politicans quaking..
In Dublin before the Dai'l you'll find this
Gallant four.' Who are seeking recognition
For injustices of yore.' They know the pain
They've lived the grind. Of 'that institutionalised hell' dressed as benign
Intervention it never worked or aged that
Well, though fifty years have passed
Away.' Still nightmare shadows cling.'
Fluttering like the somber robes, that framed those that did such wicked things'
And the Dai'l today, attempts to smother?
The efforts unyeilding and brave, of these
Four survivors, who face the very grave.'
And not just for themselves alone' no
Their actions are aimed much; much higher..They want old a'herns promise
Made good, for by the devil; wasn't he a
Liar..' but there are many in the Dai'l today
Surely men and women.? Well found.' Who
Will take their cause to their very hearts so
That Eire.. Will know that its for justice they stand.' So all may say our lands to
Be mended at last 'to be sure.!'
Where bold breezes blow a wondrous world awakes,
they swaddle silken scenes that surround so many,
fresh air is an awesome advantageous aspect all told,
it inspires instantly without waver whatsoever,
empowered energetic edge to species human,
and amazing animals as one might often observe,
inhale invigorating images imbued that tantalise the rapt rambler,
magic meadow mindfulness gets a great gee up,
from well-found winds which waft,
woo and weave surreal semblance sumptuous,
when poets pause perhaps divine delightful dizains descend,
iridescence infinite inkling as angel aura atmospheres alights,
gust of golden genesis glad guest most warmly welcome,
shell strewn sea shore surface swept,
kaleidoscopic knots kindle conduits creative channel,
bard on boundless beach befitting benefit,
oodles of ornate overarch saline squall sequesters,
petrichor’s proboscis pleasure pick up post downpour,
quixotic quintessential quest quenched by fabulous fairytale flurry,
daylight dazzle’s deft dip driven by draught
..TECHIE IN 2030
Year twenty thirty techie surged ahead
Sudden, unsteady gait filled him with dread
Baffled docs said he was sound
Checked tricorder all well found
Clicking screen perched forever on the bed!
