Gorey Writers Group Poem
Our last meeting of the year was small in number but large in talent, and we managed to eat and drink our way through all the party food!
Here is a group poem written on the night:
The Well
Look into the well
deep into its light
look into the well
the light is flickering
in the darkness
look into the well
its drummaun or sheeraun
write it down
look into the well
hopes cradle in a precious flame
look into the well
deep into the well.
Aideen, Colm, Grace and Carol
