The Eternal Rain

Daniel McDonagh

Dance with me

Under Glasgow’s midnight stars

As the depths of sadness

Sleep in your eyes,

And we will walk Balmore Road

From its beginning to its end

To watch the sunrise peek

From the Campsie Glens.

And we will wait for soft water

To stroke our skin

A Scottish trait

Of the eternal rain.

You will climb within my heart

Glaswegian and old,

To warm your soul

From the harsh, hatred cold.
