Wallace brave is in the grave
And as of his deeds they brag
The claim thet they as Scotmen are
Beneath the British Flag.
Was it for this that Wallace faught
With Longshanks so long ago?
Would he have had sense and quit the fight
If Scotlands destiny he did know?


Wallace weepps today for cowardly kings
And his nation in chains
His people are no more Scots today
Thank Chinese men are from Spain...

Very insightful. I do wish freedom for Scotland still. The soul of Wallace and true Scots lives on.

When I write, I rarely use any rhythm or structure so I always appreciate those who can write in a traditional form yet still accomplish a classic piece of writing. I can learn a lot from your work! Thank you for the insightful reads :)
