Castle On a Hill

Castle On A Hill Centuries ago built by hand with stones A formidable fortress now stands alone Sentries would guard the drawbridge and gate Townsmen sold goods in the castle's marketplace Legions of men camped outside to defend Echoes of the past on a hill my friends Old ways stand proud in a world anew Nottingham now has nothing to prove Arrows held steady for the Archers bow Hiking for miles uphill on this road Intricate labrynith no map has shown Life lived hard behind these stone walls Long live the King and Queen and all 04/23/2016
