Best Sairly Poems


Premium Member Burns' Lament

When ah sairly look doon frae up oan high
Frae ma cloud warmed dookit in the azure sky
At aw the drunken bloated bletherums
Wha meet fur ma birthday's kilted getherums
Tae feast sae dearly oan neeps an' tatties
Wi' yon sonsie  puddin' we  aye cry haggis
Tae toast wi'  wee haufs o'usquebaugh ma name
Ah huvtae admit tae a  real sense o' shame
Ah widnae want tae  be  seen deid wi' ony o'thum.
No e'en fur the whale o' a  guid king's ransom.


Sic beanos fur ithers might be fine 'n' dandy
Just gie me time fur  a wee bit o' hoochmagandy.
'Twas wi'  the lassies ah dearly lo'ed tae gambol
Fur they queens  aw did mak ma knees tae tramble.

Tae a Mouse

    Tae A Mouse   
      (Whit wid Robert Burns say!)

Ha’ where ye gon ye cowrin feartie
Your impudence protects you sairly
I canna say but ye strut yer stuff
And quite honestly we’ve had enough
Where ye gon ye cowrin farce
Back tae Brussels to kiss their A...se

Yer fair oh face an hair untinted
Half mass trousers and they say yer minted
That chain aroon the neck you wear
It’s heavy, speaks volumes A’ truly swear.
The vision o’ you tied tae the mast
Is something we should hae done in the past.

Pow’r up the engines on the private jet
Scramble the forces  we’ve tae get oot oh debt.
Or so she says without a glance
29th March we’ve tae take a chance.
No Deal there say the yins in the know.
Didnae matter if you said Yes or No!

Politics at perties a definate question
tae bring amongst us a bit o digestion.
But take O’leary the King o cheap flight
No managing ony sleep at night.
His massive fleet  there stuck on the ground
Doon beside our trusted pound.

 Now haud you there while Ive got your attendance
Remember we tried for Independence? 
Nae faith back then because we were told
 BP’s stopped drillin - We’ve nae black gold
The barrels a’ empty the drillin a’ stopped
Increases in Asda, the penny has dropped!

O wad some Power the giftie gie us
To see oursels as ithers see us!
It wad frae mony a blinder free us,
An’ foolish notion:
What airs in dress an’ gait wad Free us,
An’ ev’n a Devolution
