- There are times when old memories come crowding upon me.
The fond recollections and pleasures of yore
And the voices of older companions come crowding
Down here where the sedges are beating the shore.Then I'm borne aloft on the pennons of fancies
With lightening like speed over mountains and lea
Till I find myself right midst the scenes of my boyhood.
In dear, beloved, beautiful Ballinagree.Ah! yes I can see it now smiling before me
As fair as it seemed when a school boy strayed
Over fields fresh and green never dreaming of sorrow
Or lingered for hours in some cool pleasant shade.(continues on next page)- Collector
