I am the sight of soldiers

by Georgia Kelly

I am the sight of soldiers

I am the sound of Civil War

I am the smell of hope

I am Ireland

I am freedom.

Written by Georgia Kelly from St. Fiacc’s National School, Graiguecullen, during Poetry as Commemoration workshops led by Caroline Busher in Carlow Library, October 2022.
