This poem was inspired by a visit to the island of Inishbofin seven miles off the coast of Galway and which was journeyed to by the Dun Aenghus which was skippered by the famous Paddy O’Halloran. I subsequently had this poem framed for sale in the Inishbofin Shop and Irene the gift shop owner told me that all the ones I gave her for sale went out the door almost immediately. Day Trippers
