A few years ago I retired with family to a village in the West of Ireland.

Loughglinn my home

Luck was with me when I landed
Neighbours gathered open handed
A stranger dropped into their midst
Always willing to assist.

A change of lifestyle that’s for sure
Into an unfamiliar atmosphere
All apprehension soon dispelled
Belief in human nature upheld.

A village leaning to one side
Locals rightly beam with pride
Thankful now where I stand
Better than I ever planned.
