Expressions

Adults And Children Are Collecting Stones And Rocks

Taking Them Home

Side By Side Painting Them Bright Shiny Colours,

Others Hold Symbols And Messages Of Positivity 

They Are Leaving Them Places For Us To Find And See

As We Now Go On Our Daily Walks

Bright Shiney Messages Appear On The Ground

Bringing A Smile To Our Lips, An Extra Beat To Our Hearts

An Act of Fun And Kindness Played Out

While We Are Living Our Lives

While We Are Playing Our Part

By Staying Apart

Art Murals Are Appearing On Walls

A Creative Expression, Unlocking,Tapping Into Emotions And Feelings

Being Felt And Held Inside

A Way Without Words, A Pathway To Show We Care

A Sense Of Pride Fill The Air 

For Our Frontlines Medics 

“We Care, Please Take Care”

On The Hill Of Uisneach, A Mythological And Sacred Site 

A Fire Burned Bright, Late At Night

As The Bealtaine  Festival Marked The  Arrival Of Summer

La Fheile  Bealtaine Was Celebrated From Afar

Heart Shaped Lights Were Placed On The Earth

As The Fire Burned Bright Inside This Sacred Space

As A Symbol Of Hope, This Year

That This Wretched Curse Will Break.

So Remember To Keep The Home Fires Burning

As We Turn This Around

For A Time, Hopefully Coming Soon 

When We Can Once More

Spend Precious And Quality Time 

With Our Families And Friends
