for Robert Burns’ birthday

Once again, on Robert Burns’ birthday.

zdunno03's avatarLeonard Durso

We’ll gently walk, and sweetly talk,
While the silent moon shines clearly;
I’ll clasp thy waist, and fondly prest,
Swear how I lo’e thee dearly;
Not vernal show’rs to budding flow’rs,
Not Autumn to the farmer,
So dear can be, as thou to me,
My fair, my lovely Charmer!

  1. Ah… This poet has 3 poems in my top 20! (I discovered his poetry when I read :My love Is Like a Red Red Rose)
    Sigh, my Scottish step-father, who passed 3 months past, always brought a HAGGIS home on Robbie’s BD. Man, I hated that haggis!!!! Year after year, haggis after haggis is one of the resounding reasons I became a vegetarian.
    Well, HB Robert Burns & RIP Dad (I always loved you!)
