Waving at the angels.

 Waving at the angels 


Waving at the angels

Dancing with the wind

The giant mills of Carnsore

Maintain a constant whirr. 


At the eastern tip of Ireland

Where the ocean meets the sea

On ancient rocks  which date

Four hundred million years. 


Lighting up the homes

Of Broadway and Kilmore

Saving carbon credits 

With many more in store. 


Don Quijote would be proud

Of mills that throw their shadows

On pleasant lands that meet the sky

Reminiscent of La Mancha. 


Tacumshane will be Toledo

If only for a day

Its ancient mill restored

Where  once the Normans stayed. 


The little lights atop the turbines

Shining through the night

A guide to our survival 

By getting Paris right.
