I'Ve Done My Share

I've done my share of scribbling and dabbled in doggerel And I've drunk the sparkling waters of Tubrid's holy spring well And I have seen old Clara in his Winter hat of snow Overlooking the old country-side where Finnnow waters flow Bank high through the rushy fields in flood waters of brown Through Inchaleigh and Claraghatlea just out of Millstreet Town I've done my share of traveling though others have done more And I now live south very far south of Hibernia's windswept shore The years now telling on me the years tell on us all And we've been learning from life since before we learned to crawl I've learned a bit from living yet from life so much to know and I've been around for some while seen many Seasons come and go No secret in longevity but live for as long as you can I will try to keep on living and die as an old man.
