The Giants Causeway

The Giants Causeway

By Paul Mc Cann

.

In ancient times when giants had roamed around the land they say

life on earth was much different that the one we know today .

there’s a story I’ve been told about two giants in this place ,

Benandonner said he wanted to punch Fin McCool in the face

So the giants built these stepping stones to reach each others home

Tearing down mountains carving interlocking shapes out of stone

The pathway was a jigsaw and on the causeway was a throne

and the winner of the fight would be the high King on his own

Finn Mc Cool threw clods of mud across the sea to Scotland there

Benandonner was getting angry but Finn Mc Cool didn’t care .

Until he saw the size of the Giant there he was to fight ,

Then he quickly changed his plans and hid himself far out of sight .

Finn ran through the meadows dressed up like a baby in disguise

when Benandonner caught up with him he couldn’t believe his eyes

and he thought if this is his baby then how big must Finn be .

He retreated back home to Scotland never more to cross the sea.
