Sheila Becker's Memories

The mental pictures of the past she does retain
Memories of people of her young years with her remain
And old meadows where she often crowered the hay
When summer sun shone through the clouds of gray

The author Dr Sheila Sullivan Becker to many is a well known name
An octogenarian woman who enjoys a worldly fame
In Claraghatlea near Millstreet Town her life's journey began
And her memories more than seven decades do span

A good mother to her children and to Jay Becker a good wife
Out of Claraghatlea she has lived most of her life
For years she has lived in the U S of A
From old Clara Mountain many miles away

From that old green countryside by Millstreet Town
Her journey in life has taken her to renown
And though great success in her life she has known
Her memories of her past she never does disown

A person that i never may get to meet
But i feel proud to say that she hails from Millstreet
From old Claraghatlea a place as old as time
Where she migrated from before she reached her prime.
