Seamus Heaney 1939 – 2013.

Just heard Seamus Heaney has died.

A great human being, poet and humane
opponent of violence.

Heaney was awarded the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1995 "for works of
lyrical beauty and ethical depth, which exalt everyday miracles and the
living past".

'I've never stopped believing that something new
can always happen.'(Heaney)

We need makers of newness.

Requiescat in pace.

    Truly a man of many wise words who used his pen thoughtfully and well.
