We cast flowers on the water
and we watched them drift away
then the moment overtook us
as we joined our hands to pray
now the seagulls flying overhead
keep watch where brave men lie
we cast flowers on the water
when we said our last goodbye

Flowers On The Water

Patrick Kavanagh
On a busy street where poets meet
I still can hear him call
By the Grand Canal of an autumn day
As leaves begin to fall…..
All gone before us now
The words that dripped from the poets brow
Turned down by life’s own plough
All gone before us now

FOLK CLUB IN RECESS
The Fingal Folk Club has taken a short break for the summer months–a bit like the Dail going into recess. We have had many memorable nights since it started back in March, and once again i would like to thank my great friends Ronnie and Teddy, not forgetting the wonderfull back-up and support from their families as well. C’ant wait for the winter to come—well–provided we have a bit of good weather in between…..Martin

Tell A Friend Friday
This is a message to all the people who have been logging on to my site and cheering me up , to no end. What a pleasure it is to have you all on board. Could i be so bold as to ask you all a favour, and launch my new master plan to reach out to the whole world, with–TELL A FRIEND FRIDAY. The idea is that each one of you who have visited my site and liked what you saw and heard, would each tell a friend about me and my music. If you have two friends, that would be even better. I will post some news about how we get on and maybe we can have a little fun along the way.
Regards
