Adare Oh, sweet Adare! Oh, soft retreat of sylvan splendour! Nor summer sun nor morning gale E'er hail'd a scene more softly tender. How shall I tell the thousand charms Within thy verdant bosom dwelling, Where, lull'd in Nature's fost'ring arms, Soft peace abides and joy excelling. Ye morning airs, how sweet at dawn The slumbering boughs your song awaken, Or linger o'er the silent lawn, With odour of the harebell taken.

Gerald Griffin - Gerald Griffin Poems - Poem Hunter

Thou rising sun, how richly gleams Thy smile from far Knockfierna's mountain, O'er waving woods and bounding streams, And many a grove and glancing fountain. In sweet Adare, the jocund spring His notes of odorous joy is breathing; The wild birds in the woodland sing, The wild flowers in the vale are wreathing. There wings the Mague, as silver clear, Among the elms so sweetly flowing; There, fragrant in the early year, Wild roses on the banks are blowing.

The wild-duck seeks the sedgy bank, Or dives beneath the glistening billow, Where graceful droop and clustering dank The osier bright and rustling willow.

The hawthorn scents the leafy dale, In thicket lone the stag is belling, And sweet along the echoing vale The sound of vernal joy is swelling. Could I be thy true lover, Dearest!

Remember me then! To a Sea-Gull White bird of the tempest! O beautiful thing, With the bosom of snow, and the motionless wing, Now sweeping the billow, now floating on high, Now bathing thy plumes in the light of the sky; Now posing o'er ocean thy delicate form, Now breasting the surge with thy bosom so warm; Now darting aloft, with a heavenly scorn, Now shooting along like a ray of the morn; Now lost in the folds of the cloud-curtain'd dome, Now floating abroad like a flake of the foam; Now silently poised o'er the war of the main, Like the spirit of Charity brooding o'er pain; Now gilding with pinion all silently furl'd, Like an angel descending to comfort the world!

Thou seem'st to my spirit, as upward I gaze, And see thee, now cloth'd in mellowest rays, Now lost in the storm-driven vapours, that fly Like hosts that are routed across the broad sky, Like a pure spirit, true to its virtue and faith, 'Mid the tempests of nature, of passion, and death! He went to London in , becoming a reporter for one of the daily newspapers, and later turned to writing fiction.
