It's as though the Irish winds of time and history are interwoven with my own lineage, my own genealogy. I hear the brave voices of the saints and martyrs whose blood was spilled to win fair Erin's freedoms. I hear the Celtic Word spread far and wide as it is written in the pages of the Lindisfarne Gospels. I see the time-weathered stones of Murlough Bay and I hear the sea's call upon a saintly voyager named Brendan. And, it's as though these Irish winds have borne my heart upon their wings and transported me to an Irish Day golden and new: yet ancent and wise clothed in the simple light of its Celtic heritage, of its Irish truths. |
