Apology

by

Hay Machine

That crack of antler bone its sound a distant whirr
a prelude to a trust and understanding
that I sincerely hope can now occur
for you were right and I was wrong
and if by my admission and expressed apology
your patience is secured for higher reason's sake
then I apologise with unreserv'd ease
to further seek your ear and catch your eye
and be assured at least for now
that one half great half humble rhymester can reply
in civil terms
and on a righteous case
make good offence I may have caused
and start herein to right that written wrong
my faith ambition and dare I even say my knowledge known
that we might even grow
to jointly write some day
in memory of Frederick Weatherly
a worthy Anglo-Irish song
