| Category: Poetry Corner | 0 Comments

LIMERICK 2005

Limerick are going to beat Kerry,

Get ready the tea and the scones;

We?re blessed to have three gifted goalies,

O?Donnell and Kiely and Jones.

………………….

We honour John Quane and Jim Donovan,

Diarmuid Sheehy so dauntless and true.

Padraig Browne from famed Father Casey?s

And Michael O?Brien from Glenrua.

…………………

Outstanding was Johnny McCarthy.

Mark O?Riordan is not going to crack.

John Galvin was great at full-forward,

Stephen Lavin at centre-half-back.

…………………

We have Ger Aherne and big Stephen Lucy.

Damien Reidy from lovely Owvaun;

Sean Buckley and gallant Eoin Keating,

And versatile Conor Mullane.

…………………..

Meehaul Reidy plays beautiful football,

Like Muiris Gavin from sweet Monaleen.

Liam Kerins excelled as a manager.

He coaches our heroes in green.

………………………….

Welcome the flying Stephen Kelly,

Whose forbears came from famed Sugar Hill.

Pat Fitzgerald is the man from the Railway,

Andrew Lane he fought with a will.

………………………

Forget not young Conor Fitzgerald,

The boy from the Woodlands a star.

Johnny Murphy from famed Ballylanders

Can rifle them over the bar.

………………………

God bless Tommy Stack and Colm Hickey.

This team is not going to die.

The Kingdom are crafty and ruthless,

But Jason Stokes is a broth of a boy.

                                         le Sean O?hAirtneide.
