about this afternoon session

This 'Nature Folklore' session is on the last day of National Heritage Week in Ireland. This is an invitation for you to share your poems on Irish Heritage, especially in relation to water.

I will also discuss the importance poetry can have on our lives for well being, vision, interpretation, guidance, memory aid, and for maintaining a sense of connection and wholeness. 

What poems have you to share on the rivers, loughs, lakes, ponds, sea shores, holy wells, and water pools in bogs?

Next Nature Folklore Sessions Live - Sunday 12th September, at 2pm Irish Time Watch here Live! ... or watch the archive later (click pic to set reminder) Tree Sanctuaries Autumn Gathering support for Your Tree Sanctuary desires A time and opportunity to recap on where we are with our Tree Sanctuaries and Tree Sanctuary ideas. This is a time when trees are truly turning colour around us in many places where we live. It is also a time we start to think about and plan our next tree planting season between November and March.

The tales of Crom Cruach and Crom Dubh are very intertwined these days. Though nobody really knows the origins and details of either I am going to approach this as Crom Cruach being symbolic as a bringer of harvests, and Crom Dubh as a metaphor mythology of what happens
