S'mazin' whae yea meet oan FanStory,
writers an' poets in aw their fuwll glory.
Aw kinds o' prose, sonnets, an' writes,
reviewers , saft, carin' an' sum that bite.
Frae aw o'er the wurld they write,
in ma time an' your time day or night.
There's Bonny Lass's an lads aw ages tae,
pashionet , creative, an' wae wurds they play.
Some write aboot luv an' sexy things,
ithers verse on the joy that life doth bring.
Funny poems , sad wans that mak yea cry,
aboot the future the present an' thon by by's.
Weel a kid go oan fur days an' days,
aboot aw FanStorians a'd luv tae praise.
But yea ken that wid tak too long tae tell,
so wan example now, oan the rest a winnie dwell.
This Bonny brilliant Lass has poem an' song,
she is sae versatile an' has no' been here fur long.
Joined in September of this 2011th year,
right away she started in blidy tap gear.
Poetry, lyrics, historical writes with song,
at the very tap o' her class this lass belongs.
I have just read and listened to her latest wurk,
sae beautiful this poetic song ma hert it hurt.
Hurt no' in a sad or unhappy way,
her wurds tugs at yer hert strings as she plays.
Her guitar, her lyrical poetry, her melodious voice,
your emotions swell, you hiv nae choice.
Oh tae be a fly oan the wall taday,
tae see this bonny lass as she plays.
Plays with music ,creative wurds and song,
this lyricist, poet, writer is ranked 191 but not fur long.
Living in central Oklahoma oan a cattle ranch,
her natural poetic skills are no' by chance.
They come from natural ability an' sheer hard graft,
oh ah hear yea say. 'That Auld Yin's Daft'.
Weel ok then, ah wull prove am right,
an' ye'll aw ken am no' a daft auld kite.
Whin yea hiv read these last twa lines taday.

I use the Scottish vernacular in 90% of my poems.
The musical sounds and twists of the Scottish words used famously by 'Robert Burns', gives colour and with a little imagination and patience from the reader, makes for a experience in poetry which differs from the usual.
They say the English language is hard to master. Here all you need as I have mentioned is patience of mind and no preconceived ideas as to what is normal.
I have been told recently my humour is of the bathroom type and very much disliked. However, I won't let the misery of a few others get me down. I do say that humour to me is everyday life and I will never apologize for trying to make people laugh. It costs me nothing so let I be my gift to all who are a wee bit down :)
I was irrevocably betrothed to laughter, the sound of which has always seemed to me to be the most civilized music in the world.
Peter Ustinov (1921 - 2004)
I know that some still cannot get used to the idea of this vernacular. I do apologize, however if I do not use this dialect there would be no point in me writing at all. It is different I know but there is enough beautiful 'English' poems on FanStory that it should not matter. So, as it gives me great deal of pleasure I hope you do not mind me carrying on with this style. Thank you:) :) :): :)
