She sucks the small birds’ eggs to make her voice clear
And the more she sings cuckoo, the summer draws near’

‘Me Oul Flower….’

Thursday 3rd May – Abbey Tavern – 9 pm – adm €4

“Where have all the flowers gone”, you may ask.
Well if you want to find out just come along to Howth Singing Circle on Thursday 3rd of May for a session entitled “Me Oul Flower” hosted by Tony Fitzpatrick and Brendan Kennedy.
Sweet Daffodil Mulligan is bound to be there, if we can shift her off the banks of primroses where she goes to pick a daisy a day.
There will be banks of red roses all the way from Allendale to Tralee, and you may find bread or a briar mixed in with a rose somewhere along the way.
There may be flowers from Magherally or Finae, tulips from Amsterdam and we may even have an edelweiss.
If you’re going to the Howth Singing Circle be sure to bring a Bright Blue Rose from Both sides the Tweed or a Whatever Happened from Dick Gaughan. (Tony Fitzpatrick)
