The Manor distorted by age,
                  the name over the door
faded decades ago.
The old wooden doors on the latch,
swung open at twelve.
Drawn into the darkness eyes adjust
The old slate floor,
countless generations of men did walk,
worn comemmerating time.
echoing the foot steps of the past,
The solitary light weaving shadows,
on old mens faces ,
and shawley women in the snug.
The crackle of logs in the grate,
The sound of old men playing cards
that familiar sound of laughter.
Shelve stacked with Guinness,
bottled on Wednesdays.
The clink of glasses ,
the ring of the till,
the jingle of coins ,
on the counter,
              which men leaned against
telling tales of by gone ages
keeping the company of
ghosts of yester-year.
