Irlandia choć jest małą wyspą ma ogromny wkład w dzieje literatury światowej. W czasach zamierzchłych powstawały liczne legendy i eposy, które stały się natchnieniem dla kolejnych pokoleń. Z Irlandii pochodzi wielu wspaniałych pisarzy i poetów.

Mid-Term Break by Seamus Heaney
I sat all morning in the college sick bay
Counting bells knelling classes to a close.
At two o'clock our neighbors drove me home.
In the porch I met my father crying--
He had always taken funerals in his stride--
And Big Jim Evans saying it was a hard blow.
The baby cooed and laughed and rocked the pram
When I came in, and I was embarrassed
By old men standing up to shake my hand
And tell me they were "sorry for my trouble,"
Whispers informed strangers I was the eldest,
Away at school, as my mother held my hand
In hers and coughed out angry tearless sighs.
At ten o'clock the ambulance arrived
With the corpse, stanched and bandaged by the nurses.
Next morning I went up into the room. Snowdrops
And candles soothed the bedside; I saw him
For the first time in six weeks. Paler now,
Wearing a poppy bruise on his left temple,
He lay in the four foot box as in his cot.
No gaudy scars, the bumper knocked him clear.
A four foot box, a foot for every year. Counting bells knelling classes to a close.
At two o'clock our neighbors drove me home.
In the porch I met my father crying--
He had always taken funerals in his stride--
And Big Jim Evans saying it was a hard blow.
The baby cooed and laughed and rocked the pram
When I came in, and I was embarrassed
By old men standing up to shake my hand
And tell me they were "sorry for my trouble,"

Away at school, as my mother held my hand
In hers and coughed out angry tearless sighs.

Po lunchu poznaliśmy zasady tworzenia limeryków. Nazwa (ang. limerick) pochodzi od Luimneach, miasta i hrabstwa w Irlandii.na zakończenie zajęć zostaliśmy podzieleni na zespoły. Każda grupa musiała stworzyć swój limeryk. Dla mnie były to zajęcia bardzo trudne, ale z drugiej strony dające możliwość wszechstronnego rozwoju.
