Botany Bay

OLYMPUS DIGITAL CAMERA

Botany Bay is my new home
A chicken cost me my freedom
Now trapped and unable to roam
And this is no new Eden

A world so far from Ireland
And all I did was feed my family
I wish I was back in my bogland
Instead, I now worry about my sanity

Will I ever see Kerry again?
To walk by the shore
Dance in the rain
And open my mother’s door.
