Robert the Bruce...A Tale of Bonnie Scotland

Edward 1...Hammer of the Scots

Edward the First a King of might
Thought it his given right
To invade Scotland conquer all
His son he took with him

Known as the Hammer of the Scots
Many invasions he did lead
Longshanks another of his names

Died he did before accomplishing his dream
To destroy the Scottish King
And all the countryside
Just like George 111 did try

The Bruce

Robert the Bruce
A brave accomplished man
Became the king of Scots
After betrayal by a so called friend
Red Comyn was his name

He came from the Borders
Known they were to side with the English
He did too
Struck the Bruce down a murder
But did not succeed

Later killed he was
By hand of Bruce
In Greyfriars Kirk Dumfries

Papal Decree

Split bonnie Scotland in two
This act of sacrilege
Yet in retaliation maybe
A saving grace

A bull of denouement
On him was placed
By the Holy Roman Pope
Outlawing him

Yet still he was crowned
Bringing Scotland together once more
Before the Englishmen
Raided his castle took his wife and family
Angered him no end...

In Peace they lie...

He fought against the Brits and won
Then ruled his country well
Till on June 7 1329 he died
Buried in Abbey Dunfermline

His heart taken by his friends
Embalmed unto the Holy Land
But killed they were in Granada

Now in
Scotland they lie in peace

and so it is
