With the dead of Millstreet he will forever lay <br />His remains interred by Cashman's hill today <br />A character and one loved far and wide <br />Far beyond Cloghoula his home countryside <br />As genial a character as one could wish to meet <br />Tim Twomey he will be missed from Millstreet <br />We all grow old as from the scene we do fade <br />But in his long life so many friends he made <br />The praises of Tim Twomey ought to be sung <br />In Millstreet he was loved by old and by young <br />He may now be numbered amongst the dead <br />But at his passing tears for him were shed <br />In death from pain he has found his release <br />And in old St Mary's he is now at peace.<br /><br />Francis Duggan<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/tim-twomey/
