FLAHERTY

A little remenisce

 

FLAHERTY

 

Flaherty, where you been so long ?

You promised me a sing

Then you hit the big smazoo

Promises are such an easy thing

 

Flaherty, you were once my gal

Your name will always ring

From here to Kalamazoo

I just love what you do,  Za Sing !

 

Flaherty,  you been gone so long

Just a little flip and ping

I hear you in the wind

You are still my morning song

 

Flaherty, down Limerick way

Your red hair flies among the rows

Flaherty, you keep calling me

I will never forget your big red nose

this brought such a large smile on my face.. as your writing tends to do.

I hear you in the wind
You are still my morning song

that is my favourite bit.. it is filled with soft longing and even that gentle sort of almost cheerful "i loved you, and i am happy for that even tho you are gone" that comes from time to time when enough distance has passed since the leaving..

I really see this write as sad. It is very well expressed and very well written.
Parts of it is really cute as well. Written very well.

Good job My Friend.

Oh....this write comes across as just a little sad, a lament perhaps for someone that is lost to the writer.
This piece would look to be casually put together but it is infact, extremely well written and a wide range of instruments has been called upon and assembled together in this write in order to get a message across. The last line, perhaps a reference to a sense of humour....outstanding.
