Edinburgh, Scotland
I spent over three years in Scotland
What a beautiful place to be.
There were so many things to do there
and such interesting places to see.
That old country is reeking with History
But it's not what this poem is about
I just want to talk about Edinburgh,
Which has some features I’d like to point out.
High above this beautiful city
Sits a castle enormous and bold
It houses The Stone of Destiny
The Seat Of Scottish Monarchs of old.
The oldest crown in Europe
Containing Scotlands’ Crown Jewels
Is maintained within the castle walls
According to the Monarchy rules.
Outside the Castle is a cobblestone street
It’s called the Royal Mile
which leads to the Palace of Holyroodhouse
Where Mary Queen of Scots lived for a little while.
Whenever the Royal Family visits
And intend to spend more than a day,
They go to Holyrood Palace
And that is where they stay.
It was home for Robbie Burns the poet
And JK Rowling of Harry Potter fame
The Royal Yacht is moored there
Britannia is its name.
It's called the Festival City
in August of every year
the Worlds Largest Art Festival
is always held right here.
There's so many more things about Edinburgh
I wish I could recall
because the few that I have mentioned
are really not much at all.
