ABBY King& Queen of hearts

ABBY King& Queen of hearts

 

Royal eyes of bowed benevolence with passion and love two mortals stood on Scotland’s sovereign soil

And a portion of it they prayed and commanded by their souls would be held in esteem and forever it

 

Would be sacred and by many stones there arose a holy monolith so dedicated to God from the

Truest and purist heart that Scotland could provide as its Holy Father and mother with ruling powers

 

That rested in gifts and flowering of royal linage to bestow this towering principle from quarried stone

In all times in sunshine or clouds of pewter gray or the cool airy mist would all proclaim a faith that

 

Knows no bounds and is always a surety of this peoples love and respect for all that is Holy the inner

Sanctuary always open to rich and poor and it works it curative powers on the blighted soul whatever

 

Sins might torment but to stand in this great light from stained glass widow’s heights the small would

Feel enlarged the large and great would be made to feel there true size in this gaze of awe none are big

 

But they are the perfect size that sons and daughters make when they are on their knees in Holy prayer

None are as great as when they humble themselves and give ardent expression to their need of being

 

Made Holy no greater riches can be found in any country that outweighs a praying people and who

Show they seek guidance and mercy from its never ending source from He who sets upon A Holy throne

 

That puts all kingdoms in their proper place as they lift holy hands in praise
