If not for Gene Courtney, would Dingle ever have the pleasure of such baked cullinary delights and poetic insights... " The very West is in his soft replies"

FAKER MAIL

Copyright ©Gene Courtney 2005

Hunter gatherer home from hill,

Expecting nought in mail but bill,

To very great and nice surprise,

Something odd before my eyes.

A padded letter addressed neat,

To Faker Baker of Green Street,

Is what Faker Baker's sister wrote,

On Back of padded envelope.

Inside this cover from this messer,

A picture of our Maw, God bless her,

Kilted Striding out on highland,

On the top of Blasket Island.
