"Snow will
be general
All over Ireland
Falling on every part
Of the dark central plain
Falling softly upon the Bog of Allen
And, further westward
Into the dark mutinous Shannon waves
Softly falling through the universe
Softly falling upon our bed
Upon your white back
Upon your red hair
Upon all the living and the dead."
-- Gabriel Conroy, The Dead
