Shannonside Ceili Dancers

Ode to Maureen

Maureen Galvin, the name says it all

As a friend and a teacher, you are 10 feet tall

The music, the dancing, the fun and the laughter,

Are treasures we’ll all have for ever after.

Sometimes we giggle and sometimes we forget

So when we’re up on the stage is when you must fret

But on Monday nights when our practice is finished,

It’s rewarding to go to a pub for a Guinness

So look around you tonight and one thing is true

None of this would happen if it wasn’t for you!
