Rating: 5.0

In my Tipperary abode, a long, long time ago,

My greatest passion, on this hungry earth,

Bidding farewell to teens at a place rich of beauty is an amazing experience that has been nicely painted in the poem.

You have drawn a very realistic picture that sans no poetic requisite.

After all your poems are a wonderful mine to be traced, I hope.

Wow! A poem that describes the beauty of Slievenamon and the poetess bitter memories of falling in Love. Many lines can be sited. They are wise and skillfully placed in the poem. The flow is very good. The life their was for time being.... Anner House drew me closer, to its warm comfortable bosom, But it was only on lease. Nice work Hazel.

Hazel, a really nice write. Mucking, grooming, riding out the horses. Makes me smile. Thank you for the illustration of the troublesome quality of love. You were young going through this, it's now my turn to experience the very same, including the horses. Nice way to start my day, with your words. Thank you. Rick Elpers

A great reminder of the helter skelter life we manage to put ourselves through in our youth filled days, they were good while they lasted apart from those horrid egotistical maniacs trotting around stroking their own brows....i really enjoyed this piece as it reminded me of my own time spent in youth where enthusiasm was the key to everything...tyvm karen
