- (continued from previous page)I'll not forrget those sunny hours
However years may vary,
I'll not forget my early friends,
Nor honest "Coach" O'Leary"
Poor "Coach" and "Pinch" slept well that night,
And in the morning early,
He called me up to hear him play,
The "wind that shakes the barley".
And then he stroked my flaxen hair,
And cried "God mark my deary",
And how I wept when he said "farewell"
And think of "Coach O'Leary",
"Caoch O'Leary" is continued towards end of this book,
From the same source as the previous poem.(continues on next page) - Transcription guide »You are not logged in, but you are welcome to contribute a transcription anonymously.
