OF HIGHLAND LOVE 3

Special moments shared
Twixt Mary and her Liard.
Kisses to last forever;
Until the twelfth of never,

which is a long long time,
much longer than this rhyme.
Two charmed to e’re be dour
in their lovers’ bower,

special moments which last.
Now recalled from the past,
two loved through thick and thin,
accused of mortal sin.

Though darkness came too soon,
their love stopped time at noon.
Holding each other tight,
each felt the other’s light.

But love and life aren’t fair.
Despite affections rare,
Liard died while in between
their country and his Queen.
