My son and I today we went From Robertstown to Clare A pub meal awaited us To satisfy our hunger
As we crossed the country side The wind was howling madly The fields that had been ploughed The wind was scattering badly
The vision in front of us Was getting rather blurry All this dust kicked up This drive was a real worry
As we came to a cross road We could barely see the wind farm Hit the skids, drifted across And carried on to Clare
Finally we reached the place And our lunch there awaited Only thing we need to go And brave the journey backward

About this poem:
We have some great dust storms where the field on one side of the road drops by six inches and the other side rises by six inches...we had one of those today and my son and I decided to go for a pub meal at Clare...about forty minutes across dirt roads...visibility about ten feet
