It has been seven weeks since I last put up a poem on Poetry Thursday.
Thursdays are usually a busy day for me but today, a student cancelled giving me a space in which I could read and post this wonderful poem by Frank Ormsby, a poet from Northern Ireland, I hope you like it.
The poem is taken from 'The Penguin Book of Contemporary Irish Poetry' (1990).
