VIDEO: If you’re in a rural town over Christmas, you’ll love this from RTÉ

Tony Cuddihy

This goes out, in particular, to anyone who’s going home to a rural town in Ireland for Christmas.

RTÉ’s The Today Show with Maura and Daithí have shared this wonderful poem from the actor and writer Séamus O’Rourke, a salute to the smaller towns of Ireland over Christmas.

Simple, profound and funny, it captures what Christmas means to people up and down the country perfectly.
