Ireland has a rich and proud history, of tragedies and triumphs, of ghosts.
It is a land of special resonances.
It is therefore befitting that among his own explorations in verse of what his land means to him, Colin T. Mercer should interweave a series of ghost stories, some fabled, some personal, while his original poetry stands in awe of, and daily inspired by, the magnificence of the countryside of Ulaid (an ancient name for the counties of Northern Ireland).
Getting up early and walking in the morning air
Is for me like opening up a fresh bottle of ice cold milk
(the opening lines of 'A Hidden Cove').
