Selected Poetry by Terence Winch


THE IRISH RIVIERA

I wish I could remember the names
of these two old guys I used to see
when I was a kid and spent my summers
in Rockaway   which was known as The Irish Riviera
one of them played the fiddle    the other played
the accordion    and I think one of them wore
a top hat    they just wandered in and out of bars
playing for drinks    they were like bums
but I still remember how fine they sounded
