Roman soldiers in the cold rain
Standing shivering some in pain
Arriving here at Hadrians Wall
To protect the kingdom
From the Scott’s mighty squal
But the weather is bleak
It’s cold and it’s wet
High on the moors
In Northumberland bereft
They wished they were home
In Italian sun
Not stood here
Guarding a wall
They moaned and groaned
Their armour to bare
The wet getting in
The cold frosty air
When all of a sudden
The sun it came out
Dried them all off
Some gave a shout
At last they were warm
Enjoying the view
Of Northumberland land
Near Yorvik it’s true !
But now with the sun ☀️
Shining brightly today
They all started enjoying
Their unwelcome stay
The hills and the sea
Undulating for miles
The green and the trees 🌲
All brought a smile 😊
What did the Romans ever do for us?
They stood in the rain gaurding a wall ! 🦋

The Age Of Defiance🌼
Well I’m writing this with a heart full of sadness, bewilderment, but also excitement. You see thing is erm it’s my birthday and it’s my 60th 2021 😱 and I can’t understand where all the time has gone! I remember old people saying to me when I was but a young thing that this would happen and to make the most of being young, and another one was school days are the best time of your life well that one I couldn’t believe at all ! I hated secondary school and was bored for years until I discovered music properly then that saved the day for me and music has always been in my head and now at this ripe old age I’m finally singing and trying to get a career going in music 🎶. I have self published two singles due to be released on the 10th of this month so excited for that plus I am a member of the online singing community Smule and Starmaker as Shana @shanadrama. Sooo to cut a long story short I feel more excited about this chapter of my life than any other I’m free to do as I wish I also do digital design art on My YouTube channel Shanadrama Arty Stuff . This for me is the age of defiance and I hope I can achieve my goals now age is but a number, your only as old as you feel lol 😂 etc… etc… The way of life is long🌼 With things that do go wrong 😑 It’s not through lack of trying 🌼 But sometimes you end up crying 😢 When the storm has passed 🌸 The skies are blue at last🦋 You will end up looking back at the past🌼 Thinking it all went by so fast!🌼🌸 In the end you need to be🌼 Full of positivity 🌼 and never let life’s hills and furrows 🌼 Make you fear the next tomorrow 🌼 Hold onto dreams and hope🌼 Even through the foggy smoke🌼 Who knows what’s around the bend 🌼 It could all be happinesses in the end🌼
