An ode to the haggis

Post 1

Artisan

The haggis is a monstrous beast,
for he neither walks nor waddles,
and frenzied by his mating urge,
he cannae fly,just toddles.
He toddles over hill and moor,
and toddles through the heather,
A'singing o' his mating song,
in every kind of weather.
At last his search is ended,
O'how he starts to preen,
A hen haggis has caught his een'
a maid o'sweet seventeen.
You'll marry me the haggis says,
O' my she says,this is sudden,
for ye see am going
steady noo'
Wi' a great big mealy pudden.
"Stick tae yer ain",the haggis says,
the pudden has nae conscience,
He'll make you spicy promises,
but they're only stuffed wi' nonsense.
"You'll marry me!" the haggis says,
my love I'll give for keeps,
and soon you'll hear the patter of tiny haggis feet.
"That does the trick",the haggis says,
my love to you I'll give,
but just one final question,
"Where are we going to live?".
"A place to live!",the haggis says,
O' that's nae bother ata'
for by this time tomorrow night',
You'll be piped into Lauder Haw'
