I remember the time when the Gaelic Footballers of Millstreet <br />In the Cork County Senior Championship for the best were a hard team to beat <br />But time does bring change as some like to say so <br />And that is going back a few decades ago. <br /> <br />Nowadays with Duhallow's best junior footballers Millstreet cannot compete <br />The downturn for them one can say is complete <br />But in sport as in life few things stay the same <br />And Gaelic Football after all is only a game. <br /> <br />The glory days for Millstreet Gaelic Football may be gone <br />But in the Town in view of Clara life as usual goes on <br />Though Millstreet glory days in sport Millstreet people like to recall <br />There is far more to life than Gaelic Football. <br /> <br />Of the North Cork Gaelic Football Clubs Millstreet were to the fore <br />And against the County's best they often kicked a winning score <br />And though no Gaelic Senior Football team in Millstreet today <br />Life as usual goes on in the Town far away.<br /><br />Francis Duggan<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/i-remember-the-time/
