A welcome prophetess of Scottish Highland
Get the sacred flower to become
The next Queen of faerie Island.
Killing it softly and then some.

Highland Fling

A Scot of the fearsome Black Watch
Regrettably drank all the Scotch
His wife made it clear
She did not like beer
With a fearsome kick to his crotch.

Flee Fly Flo Flung

To Ben McDuff poor Mary would cling
When Ben McDuff did his Highland Fling
But so fast did he fling than she came unclung
And over the Highlands she was flung

Almost eight-six, that's over the hill But the Highland Fling, I'm able to do still As my kilt flips up One can see I'm no pup Got wrinkles on my wrinkles, heading downhill

Or wend in watery wooded Wales
Lean into wind of  lowland moors
Or eagle watch on Highland tors
To find my selves again agrin

The Creation Needle

Being at the peak
Of the top of Ben Nevis,
See the Great Glen
And each snow bleached crevis.
You see why it's part
of the "Highland Cathedral",
And the faith it injects
By the creation needle.

Premium Member A Highland Limerick

The once was a man from faraway
who held life in his hand as the pen did sway
With ink on the page, He left us a daze
And all the the ladies did swoon away!

Ned's Spring

There once was a Scotsman called Ned,
Who spent all his time in his bed.
He broke yet another spring,
As he danced the Highland Fling.
‘They make beds so fragile,’ he said.

For Francine's Wow me in Five Lines.

A house in motion near an ocean ... cautious one to leave. A highland house owned by time affects one ... wakes to a place in whites. A house boarded by healed one ... one's beach house welcomes New Year.

Spring Love

Evening’s highland performance,
 
 Essence of a gentle love,
 
 Radiance,
 
 Dreams of morning’s warmth
 
 Graced upon your face,
 
 A spring bare love,
 
 Inspires sweet word’s whispered,
 
Produce’s an unbroken breeze.

Premium Member A Favorite In Dublin Town

Scottish Highland calf was a favorite in Dublin Town.
We loved his temperament, he was up, never down.
He bathed in roses, daisies, and autumn leaves, so brown.
King of kindness was his title, given along with a crown.

ALONG

loch-studded moorland

bogs and runnels

and o'er the Highland Pass

antennae alert
I'll twist the wind

            to
              feed
                 my
                    Bonny
