River Lee

Dimming of the day

walking away from twilight gold

Feel the weight of its cloak

River Lee’s flowing down slow

through Cork town into the Celtic Sea

She’s never looking back

at who she leaves behind

Ah beautiful places

where we come

risk our lives as though

we’re gifted more

than just this precious one

icy water’s cold

reflects a wide eye blue

summer serene sky

swallowing our breath

a final anti hero cry

mighty river song barely a ripple

flows on by

When all the rivers overflow

where does all that water go?

In time we return to from where we came

leave Earth to heal by rain

water flood and flame.
