(Recently I revised “Scotland Bound”, and so I posted it again, I hope you don’t mind, and I do hope you enjoy it). Thanks, JC Scotland bound, Scotland bound Have searched the world, and I have found No grander land of history No grander land of mystery So raise a dram and drink with me For Scotland’s where I’ve longed to be Though beautiful the world I found So grand the land, I’m Scotland bound Scotland bound, Scotland bound Though beautiful the world I found Can’t cut the ties that tether me Can’t cut the ties of family So raise your voice and sing with me For Scotland’s where I’m soon to be Though beautiful the world I found No grander the ground, I’m Scotland bound Scotland bound, Scotland bound Have seen the world and I have found No grander land of bravery No grander land of majesty So raise a glass and drink with me For Scotland’s where they’ll bury me Though beautiful the world I found So grand the land, I’m Scotland bound |

Well now -- that needs to be set to music, JC, and then we have to get Charlie Zahm to sing it. |

That would be a good song for Albannach to do- pipes and drums! |

I like it! We need to get some music a-flowing, some drums a-beating and some people a-singing! |

Excellent, the poem draws you in and you feel the yearning and passion for home. Good job. |

I'll be Scotland bound ,when the dollars are found! I'll fly over the sea , me mate and me, We'll learn the lore of what went before, Well here the sound of scotland bound. |

Yikes, I just got back from the bank. $1.66 per Euro!! I'd write a poem but I'd start to cry too much.!! |
