		writing romantic ballads with a twist
	in the end...

There was a young Scots lass named Lilt
Who wondered, “What’s under Mac’s kilt?”
She asked him politely,
He answered contritely,
“It used to be braw but it’s wilt”.

There was a young Scotsman named Vin,

A Butterfly flutters by
On a summers breeze
The flutter by Butterflies
With delightfully winged ease
 
To watch the Butterflies flutter by
Leaves me in total awe
To witness all the butterflies fluttering by
Would just be totally braw
 
To all the Butterfly flutter by fans
On the Soup today
If you see...

Water Shimmers and Shines in the Sunlight so Braw 
Dinnlin the Earth and Trees as it Flows 
Over...
