Very proud to be part of this
Today's #comfortandhope poem is from @Marthakearney.
It was recited at her wedding by her late father; "the beauty" of Yeats' "descriptions really show how we can find solace in nature, more so at a time of adversity".
'The Lake Isle of Innisfree' by William Butler Yeats.
