Emerald isle

A veil of green
so deep, so wide
Where hills and valleys
gently bide
An island kissed
by mist and rain
Its beauty soft
a sweet refrain
Fields stretch far
a quilt of dreams
Through which the golden sunlight
streams
And rivers dance
to ancient songs
While time moves slow
where it belongs
Here castles stand
both proud and frail
Their walls alive
with whispered tale
Of warriors bold and poets’
cries
Beneath the ever-changing skies
Each village hides
a world apart
A beating soul
a timeless heart
Stone bridges arch
where waters weave
And secrets rest
in every eve
The cliffs
they rise
defy the sea
A boundary wild
Unchained
and free
And forests hum
with life unseen
Where shadows play
in hues of green
Oh Emerald Isle
a faerie’s song
Your wonders call
where hearts belong
A land untouched
where dreams reside
Forever fair
