Welcome back to another episode of Crann na beatha Short Stories and Poetry

I am Terrance Ó Domhnaill, your village scéalaí, returning again this week with more stories and poems from authors around the world.

I have three stories and a poem for you this week. The second story is a bit lengthy but worth your patience.

First up is a short romantic horror story about the effects of utter loneliness. The second is a fictional coming of age story, the third is a dystopian story of a failed world and last, a poem written in tribute to Gaza and the Palestinians.

So gather round once more and let me read to you under the shade of the crann na beatha, the tree of life.

I am Terrance Ó Domhnaill, your village scéalaí, back again this week with more stories and poems from authors around the world.

I have just have two short stories for you this week. Only two because they are a bit longer than the ones I normally read and I am still working to keep this podcast around the half hour range.

First is a wonderful young adult story about a young man's struggle with taking care of dragons. This is a continuation of previous stories from this writer that I have read here before. Then, my second story is a scary one that I think everyone will like.

So gather round once more and let me read to you under the shade of the crann na beatha, the tree of life.

I won't put the explicit language restriction on but be advised that there are two instances where a curse word was read. One each in two different stories. Nothing overly profane but I felt the need to advise nonetheless.
