Irish acres of me
Different life lived
With window shades drawn?

Not sure
It’s your long division problem to solve

My thoughts are two-tone
Like a whisper through a megaphone

Loud enough to hear
Across Irish acres of me

These things I say
Are truly what I believe

I try to write with tact
But others move much too fast

Graceful on their feet
And I can’t compete

Impulse is the theme
Nothing about this routine

Love and passion redeem
Will mold the clay of who I’ve been



Words behind the verse: acres, Irish, graceful and impulse
