Analysis of On The Path Of Amergin
(Amergin- a poet of Ireland's mythological tradition.)
~
often responding to the muse
through personal experience
like a blackbird singing
in whatever context of life
am I possessed I once thought
must I yield to artistic reality
all I feel is that I have to express
the vat of life...
crossing mystically beyond
thought and imagination
within the realm of talent
a wonderful vocation
a daily realisation of the integrity
of the artistic act
