SHE HAS ASTOUNDED ME KIERA-MARIE © Robbie Kennedy Bennett

Snow showers o’er the hills in Scotland
A ray of sunshine here in middle England

She’s lovely dad she’s asleep
Spell her name Kiera-Marie
I think she’s just like me
Dark with eyes of grey
Kiera-Marie

Is it good she asked are you upset?
A day of birth she shares with her great grandfather
Fifty nine times, I’m astonished now another number will climb
Sharing with his great granddaughter
A new beginning, no I’m not upset
I’m not upset my daughter

Kiera-Marie o’ lassie dear
He would have laughed if he were here
You’ve caught me by surprise
Hello can soften sad goodbyes

She’s lovely dad she’s asleep
Spell her name Kiera-Marie
I think she’s just like me
Dark with eyes of grey
Kiera-Marie

O’er the hills in Scotland snow showers fall
Early morn in England we receive a call
One more grandchild on the family tree
Our first lassie to love
She has astounded me Kiera-Marie

CAITLYN'S PRIZE © Robbie Kennedy Bennett

Far away on the sand of St Andrews
There, out of my reach
Last day of April late at night
A gathering there on the beach
Waiting up there for the sun to rise
Run when it does into the North Sea
O’er Britain there’s Celt, Anglo Saxon tradition
Religious festivity

First day of May in the morning
My years at All Saints were revived
One more bonnie granddaughter
The Princess of May arrived

Ribbons in hands around the Maypole
Children in best shirts of white
May, when a Queen of school was crowned
Shone, she did in the light

One thing I’ve learned in my time
The importance of guidance and trust
Nothing can better the birth of a child
And love for their life is a must

Far away on the sand of St Andrews
There, out of my reach
Caitlyn, our bonnie granddaughter
Rejoicing they are on the beach

Caitlyn, you’ve won a prize
There in the east as the sun does rise
Celebrate this day a celestial way
Your gift is the first of May
