Francis Edward Ledwidge, "To the One Dead" Georgian Anthology . Though a firm nationalist, he joined the Royal Inniskilling Fusiliers soon after the start of the First World War, to fight those he perceived as a common enemy. In June 1915 he was sent to Gallipoli and saw action in Lemnos and Serbia. He had returned to Ireland on sick leave at the time of the Easter Rising in 1916, and was deeply distressed to learn of the execution of former comrades by his present comrades. He returned to the Western Front in April 1917, where he was killed by a shell. His second volume of poetry was published three months after his death. "To the One Dead".

Poet of the Month Poetry Archive "To One Dead" By Francis Ledwidge A blackbird singing On a moss-upholstered stone, Bluebells swinging, Shadows wildly blown, A song in the wood, A ship on the sea. The song was for you and the ship was for me. A blackbird singing I hear in my troubled mind, Bluebells swinging, I see in a distant wind. But sorrow and silence, Are the wood's threnody, The silence for you and the sorrow for me.

Francis Ledwidge Cottage Slane's own Francis Ledwidge was born in Slane in 1887 and raised in a small cottage that survives today as Ireland's only "poet's cottage" museum. The cottage is situated about half a mile east of the Village on the left hand side of the Drogheda Road (N51). The cottage was purchased through the tremendous efforts of local volunteers, including Pearl Baxter, as well as through donations obtained through cousins in the States. The cottage has four small rooms including some original and period furnishings in the bedroom and kitchen. The cottage evokes the simple life of the rural Irish while the displays of original manuscripts and the poetry itself proclaim the transcendence of one man's thought in verse. It is proof that humble surroundings, close family and day laborer's work can be the forge of a great soul. Ellie Vaughey Francis Ledgwidge wrote from a young age and at one point his work was recognized as brilliant by Lord Dunsany who became his patron. Lord Dunsany introduced Ledwidge to the Dublin Literary circle and he had his first volume of Fifty poems, entitled Songs of the Field , published in 1915. His poems celebrated nature, quiet mornings before dawn and his love for Ellie Vaughey.

Francis Ledwidge (1891- 1917) Irish Poet, born in Slane in County Meath. He was encouraged and befriended by Edward Dunsany, who saw in his work promise of the authentic Irish rural voice. He wrote introductions for his three volumes of poetry, Songs of the Field (1916), Songs of the Peace (1917) and Last Songs (1918). The poems are chiefly lyrics of the countryside, although there are some that deal with mythology and folklore, in a manner reminiscent of the Celtic Twilight period of Yeats. Ledwidge was killed in action in Flanders. Seamus Heaney wrote a poem about the tragic death of Francis Ledwidge, entitled 'In Memoriam Francis Ledwidge'.

P.C. Home Page Recent Additions Francis Ledwidge Back to D.H. Lawrence Forward to John Masefield The Wife of Llew And Gwydion said to Math, when it was Spring: "Come now and let us make a wife for Llew." And so they broke broad boughs yet moist with dew, And in a shadow made a magic ring: They took the violet and the meadow-sweet To form her pretty face, and for her feet They built a mound of daisies on a wing, And for her voice they made a linnet sing In the wide poppy blowing for her mouth. And over all they chanted twenty hours. And Llew came singing from the azure south And bore away his wife of birds and flowers. A Rainy Day in April When the clouds shake their hyssops, and the rain Like holy water falls upon the plain, 'Tis sweet to gaze upon the springing grain And see your harvest born. And sweet the little breeze of melody The blackbord puffs upon teh budding tree, While the wild poppy lights upon the lea And blazes 'mid the corn. The skylark soars the freshening shower to hail, And the meek daisy holds aloft her pail. And Spring all radiant by the wayside pale Sets up her rock and reel.

Francis Ledwidge FRANCIS LEDWIDGE (1887 - 1917) poet Born 19 th Aug 1887, Slane, County Meath The son of an evicted tenant. He left the local national school at the age of twelve and earned his living as a farm labourer and later as a road overseer. His early poems were published in the Drogheda Independent. In 1912 he sent some verses to Lord Dunsany, who encouraged him to continue writing. Although he became known as a poet, Ledwidge continued working as before, became secretary of the County Meath farm labourers’ union, and served on Navan District Council. In October 1914, although a convinced nationalist, he joined the Royal Inniskilling Fusiliers, to fight ‘neither for a principle nor a people nor a law, but for the fields along the Boyne, for the birds and the blue skies over them.' He survived the Gallipoli landing but was killed in Belgium on 31 July 1917. His first collection, Songs of the Fields, was published in 1916 and the Complete Poems in 1919.
