    Good evening folks.

    I'm sorry, I know I'm in the wrong subject area in which I wish to be.

    I'm looking for a poem that Im unable to find on the internet to date.

    Its entitled 'Driving home at dusk with Donal'.
    It came up as an unseen poem for my LC English exam a few years ago and I misplaced it since then.

    I tried the 'poetry' section here but there hasn't been much activity on it for a while.
    Anyway if anyone out there can assist me, I'd be much obliged, thank you and sorry once again for the interruption.

    ... unseen poem is "Driving Home at Dusk with Donal, 4" by Don Byrne what impression of poets relationship with his son do you get and choose the image you liked ...

    Donn Byrne (born Brian Oswald Patrick Donn-Byrne) (20 November 1889 – 18 June 1928) was an Irish novelist. [Wikipedia]

    Try your local library for a copy of his poems, his works appear to be out of print.
