Mullingar

by Douglas Raeside

Platform early morn stands

Damp cold morning coffee in hand

We all wait yes half asleep

Human zombies in a heap.

 

Sleepy morning, peaceful air,

More chilled , find them there.

A peaceful land, calm most times,

Less pressure, less prominent crimes.

 

Friendly wave, friendly greet,

Even Strangers as you meet.

I like this town, though busier be,

Better for my soul you see

 

Not a city, still a town indeed,

Nature, humans share not greed.

Concrete jungle I miss less, messing

Country life yes less distressing
