A poem by Méabh Ní Thiarnáin

I’d like to be a Hurley

          hurley

I’d like to be a hurley,

And stay at home all day,

And talk to other hurleys,

In a woody sort of way.  

 

I'd love to be a hurley, 

And lie in a little shed,

And always having pucks around,

Except when I’m in bed. 

 

I’d like to be a hurley,

An O’Connor one perhaps,

And puck and hit around,

With woody sort of chaps. 

 

I wouldn’t have to do a thing,

No homework ,jobs or chores.

Comfy in my little shed,

Full of hurleys and their snores.  

 

I wouldn’t have to do a thing,

A life of bliss you see.

Except once in my whole life,

I’d win hurley of Tralee !!!!!!!!
