Beyond the green watering can and the blue tarp that holds the topsoil, 
beyond the wild violet patch that’s just past its prime,

beyond the swell of the ridge and the river I cannot see,
… beyond all that, there lies Brigid’s Well at Liscannor, the cairns of Loughcrew, and the great Hill of Uisneach.
