To his standing ovation
Her stage tickled pink

SCOTTISH   DREAMS




The faint strain of the pipes in dreams
Sailing o’er the Solway’s foam

R     Rodents and snakes...

Bamboo wind chime song
A soft gentle melody
Breath across wood pipes
changes the tune and tempo
Elevating my new joy

They called him Stogie for a clear reason.
He smoked fat pipes no matter the season.
Try to take it from him.
You’ll get a smack on the chin.
To take away the cat’s vice is tantamount to treason....

There lived a kind lady named Summer,
Her faithful spouse, he was a plumber
When her pipes became clogged,
To her rescue, he jogged
But forgot to kiss her, a bummer!

Winter
Old man winter back again
Dinged fenders, frozen pipes
Frozen toes, stolen breaths
Old man winter laughs again
Wet floors, mismatched gloves
Soaking boots, frozen doors
Old man winter strikes again...
