Two individuals are engaged in a dance, while a third person, wearing a veil and a leafy crown, walks nearby. The background consists of a textured wall. It's awkward and it's real.

“The Wren, the wren, the king of the birds..” 🎶🎵🎶

The Ballydehob Wren head out and away up the village. 26 December 2025.

The numbers have quietly grown over the past few years.

The wren’s lost his crown
In the thorns and the fern.
Now redbreast is king,
And spring will return!

But where is the wren?
Where is Dreoilín?
He flies through the bushes,
Doesn’t want to be seen.

A pigeon looks on at
A blue-tit in branches,
The ducks and the swans,
Sail past in huge tranches.

A goose looks me over,
With a dubious glare,
And then a grey heron
Takes off in the air.

A moorhen steps bravely
Alone on the ice,
Some seagulls do likewise
But can launch in a thrice.

A seagull soars high
As a sparrow looks on,
The blue-jay sings loudly
His intricate song.

A magpie, a blackbird,
A tit in a tree,
But nowhere I look
That wee wren can I see.

On #LáAnDreoilín,
By the moor and the bog,
I went to hunt the wren,
In wind and rain and fog.

I got a chance to get on stage at the holiday dinner to sing The Wren. 🐦. This practice dates back to prechristian Ireland and England. #Christmas #thewren #folklore

Beyond brilliant #thewren #anneenright
Poetry, gutting reality, raw emotions, characters who feel real & flawed & vulnerable.
I’ve never posted *trigger warning* before but there are a couple here - v hard to read scenes, yet, I feel necessary & full of purpose.
Deserves all the accolades.
