This a beautiful poem, written not with a pen, but with the heart and soul

Oh, I almost forgot: thanks for the dedication. Don't forget to include John Montague - born in Brooklyn, but as Irish as they come, and a truly great poet. In regard to his poems, I would recommend 'All Legendary Obstacles', 'Tides', 'The Same Gesture' and 'Like Dolmens Round My Childhood'.

Also, you might take a look at Michael Longley and Richard Murphy - two excellent poets by any standard.
