Ancestry Surprises

The Vikings surviving
Travelling fighting 
All were uniting  
Ending enlightened

invasion surprising 
England arriving 
Provided a King 
Fought and did win

The Normandy Vikings 
My family were tied in
aligned with the timings 
Madness my mind thinks

Extraordinary findings 
All of it binding 
From Norway as Vikings 
Invasion and fighting 

winning exciting 
crowning the king 
Battle of Hastings 
History writing 

William the Conqueror 
Past paths wonder for
The first to the pinnacle 
Witnessed a miracle 

My Family ancestry 
Walked with the best I see 
very impressed I be 
My life depressing me
