The Family Tree - June/July 2004
 Scotland My Scotland

Of late I have been busily writing my version of a Stevenson ish Verse book for children, and in between writing children's verse I come up with  some very neat pieces and I would like to submit this one for publication in the Tree.

 I hope you like it.

It is entitled Scotland My Scotland

Scotland My Scotland
 By T.E. Watson ©2004

My home a land
Of castles past
A time of Highland
Shadows cast

A land where all dear
Clansman dwell
To gather yarns
And story tell

This land to fight
With life defend
My Scotland that
Will nae’ not end

On the book front I have two books coming out a little later this year. Mom Can I Have A Dragon is soon to be here. Glen Robbie, A Scottish Fairy Tale is to be released  later this year( crossing our finger for a Pleasanton Games release).

 Stay Well and Happy.

 All the Best
