Next year, Ireland will have 'The Gathering' where Irish People from all over the world will be invited to come home for a little while.
People will doubtless write songs about it.
So I just thought I'd do mine before the rush starts...
Sit in The Evening a While
Not a big thing
Not so grand
Not a show of style
I just want to see you
And sit in the evening a while
Talk, listen
Friendly hand
A memory to beguile
Only to see you
And sit in the evening a while
We paddled streams together
Long days ago
And the waters now between us
Are heavy, deep and slow
Not a parade
Not a band
One moment in the Isle
A moment to see you
And sit in the evening a while
(c) Ken Armstrong - November 2012
