Most Of The Images

Most of the images of faces on the website of Millstreet Are of people i do not know of or never may meet In my first home place now many strangers to me Years of absence makes us strangers is how it seems to be Perhaps some of their parents i knew of or knew Where my friends used to be many perhaps today there are few That i knew or knew of in Seasons long past The memories of what was in me fading fast But home is where you live to me too must apply I only have memories of days long gone by When i was younger and my hair was dark brown In Claraghatlea a mile west of Millstreet Town Some i went to school with not living today At peace with Nature their last remains lay Others like me are showing their years in gray Time that rusts iron wears all things away My bond to Duhallow is no longer that strong Perhaps from there i have been absent for far too long Home to me is where i live in Illowa near the City of Warrnambool Far south of where i went to primary school Most of the images on the Millstreet wewb site are strangers to me They are not among the images of faces stored in my memory Though perhaps some of their parents i have known or known of in the past Memories of what was in me fading fast.
