Notes About The Poem

Scotsman's Warmth

Bagpipes conveying the delight Of a country filled with insight Swinging their kilts in accord With their song of joy, so adored They color the world in green Appreciating the good queen Awakening a world to glean ~ Gaelic poetry and prose will sigh Through the echoes of a blue sky That reminisce with kilts so bright Laughter harmonizing despite The blessed stanzas and rhymes Poems alive with a joyful times That focuses on more than crimes ~ The Scotsman has reported the fact That we shouldn’t ever overreact We should keep remembering the past History and the mystery so steadfast Lives that knew blessings to the hilts And hearts that liked wearing kilts Certainly never feeling swell of guilts Scotland One Rule Poetry Contest Sponsored by Julia Ward March 2, 2021

Nice one. Although I am still traumatized by bagpipes a bit. When I was a foreign exchange student in the US, my host brother practized then day in and day out. But I enjoyed the caber toss at the Highland Gaames ...

I like the 'insight' in those kilts, Regina. Having inspected one, I can assure you that with Scots, what you see is what you get: The inside of the kilt looks exactly like the outside! Thus the 'in-sight.' Smiles, Gershon
