'I saw the Sun at Midnight, rising red' Summary
The collection opens with the title poem, which describes the beauty of the Irish landscape and the poet's love for his country. Other poems in the collection deal with the themes of war and death, and they often express the poet's sorrow and anger at the violence that has torn his country apart.
