In Killarney Poem by Francis Duggan

Rain clouds like dark woolly fleeces are in the southern sky
Where the pied oystercatchers are piping as they fly
Above the beach at Killarney on sunday the first of May
In the grayness before sunset in the fading light of day
Autumn in south western Victoria is a pleasant time of year
The weather not too chilly though the Winter days are near
The humidity of Summer died in the Autumn rain
From a personal point of view it is nice to have the cooler weather back with us again
A calm Autumn evening by the ocean the weather nice and cool
In Killarney between Port Fairy and the City of Warrnambool
On the beach a woman walking her golden labrador the only person apart from me
It is usually a quiet old place Killarney by the Pacific Sea
The silver gulls are mewing and the pied oystercatchers call
On Mayday in south west Victoria in Killarney in the Fall
