| "Tis a Scot I was Born And a Scot I will die In a Land Far from Home But a Land That I Love. We Scots helped To build This Glorious Place This Land that Is Free, this Land of Great Space. the East and the North Were the first place We lived Then the Praries And Mountains The Coast Of the West. We Farmed and We Hunted Traded and Trapped Explored and Settled Made most of the Maps We followed the Rivers The Trails and the Paths Through Forest and Plains And great Mountain Gaps We opened this Land For those that Would come To build their Fine Cities And call this Land Home. |

| You're definitely in love with your country and what a wondeful hommage to it one can read in your poem. If only all Canadians would really see the beauty of our country like you do... LOA |

| LOA; I am caught between two loves as I said in my poem. To bad I can't pick Scotland up and set it down in the Gulf of St. Lawrence just a wee bit north of P.E.I. and a wee bit south of NFLD. Camac. |

Awww!Man wouldn't it be wonderful eh! You can bet your life that I'd be the first in line to buy a house there by the ocean and just sit there listening at the sound of the waves and the cry of the seagulls all F.R.E.A.K.I.N.G day long. Just peace and quiet. Okay I guess it's time for my bed I'm dreaming standing up again.... Thanks for the lovely poem Camac. LOA |
