This afternoon.
The Hermitage St Enda’s Park, Rathfarnham, Dublin 16 (where Patrick Pearse lived and ran his Irish-speaking school, Scoil Éanna, between 1910-16)
Members of Tallaght Community Arts celebrate the official launch of the Pearse Museum with an open air performance for President Higgins of Aeridheacht (the story of Cúchulainn), a spectacle staged prior to the 1916 Rising at the school by Willie Pearse, brother of Patrick.

How is that the launch, I was there a few months ago?
excellent by the way, would really recommend it.
Ditto. I visited the museum last year: is it not the launch of the 1916 commemoration stuff?
It’s a lovely park to stroll around as well.
LITTLE LAD OF THE TRICKS
by Padraig Pearse.
Little lad of the tricks,
Full well I know
That you have been in mischief:
Confess your fault truly.
I forgive you, child
Of the soft red mouth:
I will not condemn anyone
For a sin not understood.
Raise your comely head
Till I kiss your mouth:
If either of us is the better of that
I am the better of it.
There is a fragrance in your kiss
That I have not found yet
In the kisses of women
Or in the honey of their bodies.
Lad of the grey eyes,
That flush in thy cheek
Would be white with dread of me
Could you read my secrets.
He who has my secrets
Is not fit to touch you:
Is not that a pitiful thing,
Little lad of the tricks?
Flaming..
Scuttering fock, that’s dodgy.
*shudder*
What sort of shi%te poem is that?
Big crowd there in front of a very big building.
So it must be something very important.
With the president as well.
Magnificent.
Tallaght Community Arts do great work.
Boy, love those costumes
Away, away, in the land of the little people, the faries.
When say faries, i of course mean the little folk.
Saw the second photo; thought it was going to go all Wicker Man.
well worth a visit .
