Margaret Daly

She was born and raised as Margaret Buckley in Kippagh in Ballydaly from Millstreet Town some three miles of roadway
In marriage she was known as Margaret Daly and in  Clonfert in Duhallow her last remains does lay
I know she had two brothers and two sisters The Buckleys left Kippagh many decades ago
All we have left of the past are our memories and time does become everybody's foe
Often see her cycling to the Town of Millstreet with her sister Mary the Buckleys nice young women as i do recall
It is sad to think that she has gone to the forever but the last day and night is for us all
Time would have brought great change to Ballydaly but then of most places one can say the same
Where i was well known and where i did know many few today would even know of me by name
But i have good memories of Margaret Buckley she was one i often used to meet
When i was young a primary school going fellow as she cycled on the roadway to Millstreet
One can only hope she had a painless ending since so many do have a painful end
I do recall her as quite a nice person and many people loved her as a friend
Her final resting place many miles from Ballydaly where the river from Kippagh Lake to the Finnow flow
And may she rest in peace now Margaret Daly the Margaret Buckley that i used to know.
