Ronnie McGinn's Poetry Page

If you have a poem you'd like to see published in The Irish Examiner then send it to:

The Poetry Corner
The Irish Examiner USA
1040 Jackson Avenue, Third Floor
Long Island City
NY 11101

or, preferably, you can email it direct to
ronniemcginn@eircom.net.

If possible keep your poem to 20 lines. You may choose any subject you like, in any form you like as long as it's original. We look forward to hearing from you.

Every good poem has a life of its own, its peculiar atmosphere, flavour and emotional key. It is the business of every poem to move the reader.

Our poem this week from Martin Swords of the Wicklow Writers Group takes us to one of the most beautiful places on Earth. Martin uses some lovely lyrical verse to glide us over the breathing panoramic view from the Wicklow Gap and its serenely exciting effect on him.

Martin tells us that at the weekly meeting of Wicklow Writers Group they read our Poetry Corner and wish that more magazines and papers carried similar outlets for Poetry enthusiasts.

Thank you Martin and our thanks to all at The Wicklow Writers Group.
