Mrs. Quigley,

how is your son?

Mrs. Quigley, was it

an I.R.A. Directive

for your son to quit

the hunger strike?

Mrs. Quigley,

a few words, please!

Oh, my love

is a small boat

and it rises and falls

on the tide

and as I sail on the ocean

I have one,

one secret inside

I dream of the seabird

as it opens its wings

to the Gale

and as it soars

o'er the island

it follows the wake

of my trail

and when

the dark night falls

and the gray mists

surround me

my heart is a small boat

your smile is the shore
