Two Duhallow Greats

In Duhallow where i was born and raised many famous rally drivers, athletes and many great players of Gaelic football Their achievements in sports Duhallow sports writers like to recall And though out of sporting achievements legends are known to grow For true greatness we look elsewhere this much i have come to know Sister Mary Lucey in Pemba in Zambia miracle worker supreme Far from her birthplace and first home one held in high esteem She has helped to build homes for the homeless her life to the poor she devote For her amazing achievements a woman well worthy of note In South America Conor Hartnett from Millstreet helping those of helping in need One of kindness and compassion and a great human being indeed Doing his bit for humanity far south of Hibernia's shore Of his kind the Human World is in need of many more Many more great people from Duhallow who have achieved great things elsewhere Who have made their mark in the big World out there Like Sister Mary Lucey and Conor Hartnett for the poorest of people they do care Though sad to say in the World that their kind are too rare.
