From his first homeplace near Cullen he lives far away
Bernard O' Donoghue is a literary legend today
Far from Duhallow's green old countryside
In literature one who is famed Worldwide
One who is well worthy of literary note
He has earned his title of a major poet
Among the poets of the English speaking World of the twenty first century
His is a name that one often does see
A marvellous wordsmith who is widely known
One can say he is in a class of his own
Quite humble for one of such a great name
His marvellous poems are his ticket to fame
To the great Bernard O' Donoghue credit is only due
That poets are born to be poets happens to be true.
