My Muse Plays Celtic Lord oh Lord what had me played when I listened first the Celtic sway which carried me oh, so far away, as what those tunes did me this day Carried me off to Donegal's green where my soul must once have been and I know I believe in Brigadoon as I heard an Irish lass croon "Harmonious Pipe" was Stephen's song and I listen so quietly, oh so long as it played, I knew this thrill to be again there on yon hill 'Tis so pleasant to hear e'en the pipe to envision now the mists at dawn to be then in your arms so wide to walk the landscape God set us on I believe I'm then from Ireland for the lovely mists and moors call me back with Celtic song and take me to where I lived before… From Open Forum #10 revised 02.02.02 For my Irish Friend... Bridget Shenachie... Get well soon, m'friend... |

Thanks Karilea, and hope Bridget is okay. If tears could build a stairway and memories a lane, I'd walk right up to heaven and bring you home again. |

There is something of Irish mists and music in all of us, but also of Irish prayer. Count mine in for Bridget. Ken Through rubble and trouble and dark of night |

October leaves long long ago was I but a shiftless fellow Pipes in hand and shoulder slung Though I've watched a master mellow (Karilea) "God's blessing here" the wanderer cries far off be Hell's black viper Does anybody here abouts remember Rex the typer --------- Your Muse most certainly "Plays Celtic" Enjoyed this very much Karilea |

I remember walking into an Irish pub in New Orleans... and the wave of recognition that swept over me... This poem does the same. *S* Beautiful work! |

I love the music of the Irish, their instruments and their poetry. Nan (Pilgrim variety) |
