rowein thunner

an streengs o weet

...a caumin sitar

rolling thunder

and strings of rain

...a calming  sitar

throuch Mass

a  trappit bummer drones

...dree

through Mass

a trapped bee drones

...panic

causey thiggers  -

abuin thair heids

burds trauchle nest biggin

street beggars  -

above their heads

birds labour nest building

freenly neebour  -

her daffins

heald intae ma gairden

friendly neighbour  -

her daffodils

lean into my garden

on the  peth a riven weeng  -

bluid on the pen  

fir an ugsome sonnet

on the path a torn-out wing  -

blood on the quill  

for a gory story

voar  -  the burn's tuin

hus the bodach jiggin

...in's heid!

spring  -  the stream's tune

has the old man dancing

...in his head!

waashin day  -

i the winnock

cumuli an freith

washing day  -

in the window

cumuli and suds

bowsterous wund  

treen threshin  -

skeery i the craw's nest

fierce wind

trees thrashing  -

scary in the crow's nest

scutchin the hedge

he reflecks

on the lenth o's baird

trimming the hedge

he reflects

on the length of his beard

the gairden's furst bummer  -

its slaw daunce

the gawpin flooer

the garden's first bee   -

its slow dance

the gaping flower
