When did Seamus Heaney write the poem The Call?

Not entirely sure, but the poem was published in the collection The Spirit Level, in 1996. I can't tell you which periodical it may have appeared in prior to that, though I would guess that it would have been written between the time of his previous book (Seeing Things, 1991) and 1996. A Dubliner Adds: Heaney wrote Postricpt in 1994. He and his wife Marie had been driving around County Claire, Ireland and afterwards feeling the exhileration and energy that the trip evoked in him, Heaney wrote this poem very quickly. He believes that some of one's best loved poems are those that are written quickly, in the spirit of the moment , so to speak. He believes, poems such as Postscript for example, are first and foremost a gift to oneself but hopefully a gift to others. With Postscript as with all of Heaney's works this is most certainly true.
