Hardy By Name, Hardy By War

In History, Nelson fought the Spanish
This powerful Armada did vanish
My ancestor was in thrall
Kismet Hardy had a ball
No invasion, the infidels, banished

Wow! Another piece of history of which I know little, James. Can't imagine what it took to make the Armada "vanish." I just posted one I hope you'll give me an honest opinion on. I haven't been writing much lately. Love, Carolyn

Interesting work..Not sure that I understand..You'll have to explain..Thanks for stopping by my blog...I is a sad day for me..Rocky was fourteen and one-half years old..I think that my husband getting down with his knee may have contributed to Rocky's health failing..My husband would take him on a run everyday and during part of the time Tommy was sick he couldn't take Rocky out..Rocky died from heartfailure..Sara
