The Well

                                                                                                                                                                                                              
Holy well at Killargue, Co Leitrim





The Well

I have left my hopes for the future dancing in a tree,
a tree growing on solid rock.
The bottom of the well is a mosaic of shining coins,
each a beacon for someone’s dream.
Where gods immemorial have changed water to verdure,
there is the place to sow a seed.
