Stradbally resident puts love for his hometown into words

Main Street, Stradbally
Stradbally's Charm
In Laois' heart, where rolling hills reside, A town named Stradbally, where memories abide.
The Bauteogue river flows through its land, Its beauty shines, a work of nature's hand.
The Rock of Dunamaise a sentinel of stone, A witness to ages, where legends were sown.
Emo Court, a stately house, a timeless grace, Where history whispers, in every space.
Electric Picnic, a vibrant festival's gleam, A gathering of souls, a joyous dream.
Steam Rally, a blast from the past, a sight to behold, As vintage machines, their stories unfold.
Stradbally's charm, a tapestry of time, A place where nature's beauty intertwines.
With festivals and history, a vibrant blend, A town that's cherished, to the very end.
