walking conduits for her moods and passions,
gladly bearing her soil upon their soles.

Here, where the harvest is gathered by firesides
in winter, fuelled by fine malt
and aged in ink-stained pages;

Where stones sing of freedom
and dying heather
lends the hills a coat of ancient blood;

Storm winds skirl through craggy passes
stirring silent, waiting lochs
to bursts of foam-whipped fury.

We walked in the footprints
of kings, rogues and heroes.

I walked into you
and you carried me home
i've actually spat on the heart, it was easy having the temperament i have, i could be way off base but it smacks of a love poem. if not for a person, then the place. the stone if i had a nit it would be that for me the last two lines work better above the two above it.
lots to like about it, makes me think of rob roy and the stone of destiney which is back at the castle.

thanks for the read.
