The Female Voice Of Millstreet Poem by Francis Duggan

The female voice of Millstreet Eily Buckley of late has not been feeling well
Sean Radley deputizing for her on her online Regional Report from which she is having a spell
That Eily has many friends in Millstreet of her only true to say
And doubtless she will be back again to a rousing hooray

Eily Buckley is quite popular in the Town by Clara Hill
She is as much a Millstreet celebrity as Carmen Miranda was in Brazil
In Millstreet it would not be a wise person who in words would put her down
She or he would lose a lot of friends in the old Duhallow Town

Wherever Eily Buckley is joy is to be found
She always takes it with her and shares it around
A great mentor to her family and to the late Dan Buckley a good wife
It can be said of Eily she is larger far than life

Eily Buckley she is famous and she is known far and wide
Beyond the Barony borders of Duhallow's green old countryside
Recovering from her operation and feeling better now it does seem
In Millstreet Town and Millstreet Parish she is held in high esteem.
