Floridian Poetry (series 2)

Gaelach Glas (Irish Green)

Swirling green of blooming love,
A beautiful rainy sky above,
To save us from the driest year,
God on high shall shed a tear.

On this turn, new dawn of man,
Destroying life like no one can,
God gives another Irish green,
Sowing with a mind so keen.

His attention to minute detail,
Spread into every mount and vale,
Death surrendered to His intimate hand,
As His heart beat for every land.

With fervent joy Earth Mother returned,
Beginning anew a cycle spurned,
Creatures of the land rejoice,
For God has heard your solemn voice.
