The story of this poem goes that Finbar Furey of The Furey Brothers was trying to find, or to put words to the musical or instrumental piece "The Lonesome Boatman" for quite a while, but I'll let Michael tell the story. A member of The Meath Writers' Circle for over ten years, his book "Short Trousers Days in Navan" was one of the biggest selling in the county. If you scroll a bit further back you can hear him reading his own poem "Try Talking". He has a number of videos posted on Youtube and his blogsite is only a click away on the right.
