Queen Margaret Of Scotland

The depth of you cannot be seen,
veiled in the mist of dark antiquity.
Your strength was felt within your realm,
whilst standing to protect your legacy.

Bravery within you was ignited
when those you loved could come to ruin.
Never once did you recoil,
though other women would faint and swoon.

Seeing beyond the bounds of Scotland
with heart’s eye knowing the vast;
your will to transcend the ordinary
and ensure Scotland would surpass.

Today, you live on in the heart of one
who dared to believe your essence supernal.
Past and present, they do converge,
bringing your memory life eternal.
