My lovely award was designed by Cyhiraeth Volcae Welcome to my cozy wee cave, where I retreat from the world and, like the filid of old, seek Otherworldly Imbas Forosnai (Poetic Inspiration), from which to concoct thoughts, words and dreams and shape them into such magickal formulae as poems and tales for the pleasure of my tuatha. To learn more about the altered states of filid, read Imbas Forosnai by Nora Chadwick. If you're interested in poetic structure, visit Irish Poetic Forms; or if you're in the mood for reading an exquisite early bardic poem, see To A Harp by Gofraidh Fionn Ó Dálaigh. Those with a passion for the harp itsef should see The Honourable Robert Ruadh of the Isles' interesting history of Gaelic Harps & Harpers in Ireland & Scotland.
