Tae a supper .....

Post by mesklin » Wed Mar 30, 2005 6:25 pm

Here’s tae a supper
Hope ye ken the wan ah mean
Fae a shop that’s run b’ ‘tallys
Open late fur them that’s been

Tae pubs or clubs or pictchers
Late nicht trains or aff a shift.
Feelin hungry, ca’ be bothered
Or brocht in b’ smell an licht.

Some hae fish an some hae puddens
Some hae chips, ca’ ‘fford nae mair
Some that’s been aboot the bevvy
Hae regrets, an clean the flair!

Noo thae puddens come in many
Types an colours, white or black
Red an haggis, even Mars bars!
In a batter? Haud me back!

Weel ah ken there’s them w’ posh taste
W’dnae daur go near the door
If the vinegar isnae ‘drizzled’
They would never ask for more

When ye’ve seen awa yer mither
An yer heart is hurtin bad
Gie tae me a pudden supper
An ah’ll share it w’ mah Dad
An remember aw the suppers
That the three of us have had.

Dave

Tae a Nut Cutlet

Post by mesklin » Wed Mar 30, 2005 8:17 pm

ODE TAE A NUT CUTLET
For Grannysrock.

There’s mony a meal been richtly praised
It’s flavour, look, the smellin
But faur too mony in the pan
Were livin ance. Ah’m tellin!

Yer bacon oinked
That steak went moo
And lamb! It hurts t’ say.
Cause ah’m no wan
To cause a pain
So this is whit ah say

In oil that comes
Fae floors o sun
An very tasty…
…but yet
Ah h’vne hurt
A livin sowel
Ah’m cookin me…
…nut cutlet.


You have no idea how hard it is to get some things to rhyme.
You try ‘Oranges’ or ‘Silver’
