WINKING GLITTER OF A FROSTY DAWN


A favourite poem

". . . On the grey stone. In silver the
 wonder of a Christmas townland,
 the winking glitter of a frosty
 dawn. Cassiopeia was over Cassidy's
 hanging hill, I looked and three
 whin bushes rode across 
 The Horizon. - The Three Wise
 Kings. An old man passing . . ."
                       Patrick Kavanagh
