Poetry for your Monday

"We bled under a banner to find life as free men 
the wind still blows across those far off glens
where Scottish blood flowed to keep us all free 
What we did not know was, what will be, will be   

We can alter the future by the actions of today 
but yesterday is already set and flown away 
so set your sights on changing tomorrow 
don't dwell on the past and all of the sorrow   

The future can shine as bright as the sun 
Our web of life is still to be spun 
The silken thread that join us together 
all interlinked and entwined  with the heather   

The blood in our veins carries memories of the past 
linking us together from the first to the last 
Wherever you roam you will remember your blood line 
no matter where you are a Scottish heart will always shine   

The freedom we had is still all around 
The heart that is Scotland can never be drowned 
A voice from the past is heard in every true heart 
So stay true to yourself and live free before you depart"

-Leslie Hounsel
