THE PIPER
A piper in the streets to-day Set up and tuned, and started to play. And away, away, away on the tide Of his music, we started; on every side Doors and windows were, opened wide. And men left down their work and came, And women with petticoats coloured like flame. And little bare feet that were blue with cold, Went dancing back to the age of gold, And all the world went gay, went gay For half an hour In the street to-day. —Seumas O’Sullivan.
