When All The Others Were Away At Mass by Seamus Heaney

Noble Prise winner (1998) Seamus Heaney died at 74 at the end of August. Here is one of my favorite poems. I love how intimate these few lines can be, and how poignant. May the smiling face of God shine on your journey as you go. For more on Seamus heaney follow the link http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/entertainment-arts-13930435
