Behind The Castle’s Walls

Behind The Castle’s Walls

By Paul McCann

Minard castle on the hill, Is beautifully standing still ,

looking back at times gone past .

In between the stones and clay, are memories of a day

that has long since us gone past.

Within the ruins I sat and tried to imagine what

people did away back then .

Was there tea with bread and jam

or  poached eggs with some smoked ham

for all the hard working men .

Where the people of good faith and did they always feel safe   

Behind the castle walls there .

Will these walls ever fall down, with memories to the ground

left for no one else to share ,

.
