What awesome stories could be told
Of knights in armour, riding bold
Defending maids in days of old
And marching on to glory
In battles fought and battles won
As armour shone in summer sun
The knightly steed would yield to none
Despite the great furore
But now the castle’s falling down
No kingly head to wear the crown
All memory is just a frown
As children learn the story
Students of literature may recognise Laugharne Castle. On the other side of the castle is Dylan Thomas’ boathouse where he wrote much of his work, including, I believe, his play, Under Milk Wood.
