When First I Saw You Kitty
When first I saw you Kitty I was just a twelve year boy
A mile or so from Millstreet Town on an evening in July
Walking on the Millstreet to Killarney road with your sister Margaret
I still have not forgotten ‘that memory with me yet’.
I was told that’s Kitty Cronin ‘the world is at her feet’
The pride of all Duhallow and the darling of Millstreet
And you were scarcely twenty then and at the threshold of your prime
But that was thirty years ago and further down the line.

Mary McSweeney Receives Her Wonderful Millstreet Local Lotto Cheque
Pakie Coffey
He moved to county Waterford one hundred miles down track
To work for Radley brothers they said he would be back
They said that in County Waterford he could not settle in
That he could never live too far away from kith and kin.
He worked for years in Millstreet and to Millstreet he belong
And that he could never leave the place but Pakie proved them wrong
And though he did return to Millstreet for the brief holiday
Down in the County Waterford he seemed happy to stay.
