Bardic Verse: ‘My Virtual Raglan' by Milady Astrid Pålsdottir

Within known walls
and not castle halls
was my very first Raglan fair-
yet without it, I wouldn’t have been there.

 

Remembered a few people from Shire events,

met many more who were new

to me, and the SCA,

which is what happens when you’re new anyway!

 

A few new things I got to see,

not as many as I’d have liked, but still-

Camp fires and another Bardic Circle,

I finally performed at this one,

in a great night of skill and happiness

even if it did all go too fast.

In the future, I’d love to see those castle walls,

but glad I could still take part in these halls-

I’m happy to remember my first Raglan fair.
