LIMERICK V KILKENNY – Sean O’hAirtneide

| Category: Poetry Corner | 0 Comments

LIMERICK V KILKENNY

Limerick are paired with Kilkenny,

While Wexford do battle with Clare;

Our goalie is sound Timmy Houlihan,

With Stephen Lucy commanding the square.

………………

Ollie Moran and Niall were outstanding,

The brothers from storied Ahane;

TJ Ryan and Donie were heroes

From the parish of Garryspillane.

………………

Mark Foley was great against Galway,

His county he never lets down;

Forget not young Alan O?Connor,

The whizkid from famed Ballybrowne.

…………………..

Donal O?Grady from sweet Ballingarry

At midfield was skillful and free;

Paul O?Grady?s late point was tremenduous.

We had Jamsie O?Brien from Bruree.

……………………..

Damien Reale was on course for an All-Star,

For Mike Clifford he had to make room;

Conor Fitzgerald plays hurling and football

With Stephen Lucy the doctor from Croom.

……………………..

Joe McKenna has brought them on nicely,

This game will go down to the wire;

Brian Geary at half back was mighty,

Supported by Paudie O?Dwyer.

…………………….

Pat Kirby came down from Knockainy

With a talent exciting and rare;

Andrew O?Shaughnessy is the boy from Kilmallock

And the Currach in County Kildare.

…………………..

Liam Lenihan prayed in Lourdes for a miracle,

Peter Lalor will fight ?till he die.

I remember to read as a schoolboy

That David defeated Goliath!
