Haggis ghazal

Haggis ghazal

 

There’s no such thing as unwelcome haggis

So let’s all raise a cheer for our chum, haggis!

 

With legs on one side shorter than the other

You’ll never stumble on a plumb haggis.

 

They circumnavigate the mountain

In one direction only – dumb haggis!

 

What can we make from all this extra offal?

Stuff it in ewe stomach - call it um, haggis?

 

Some of the best are born in poor surroundings

So never disrespect a slum haggis.

 

A wallflower at a ceilidh’s out of place,

There must be something up – a glum haggis!

 

With forty-three wee nippers in her litter

There’s no-one works as hard as Mum haggis!

 

The Frasers of this land like nothing more

Than whisky in their glass, and rum haggis!
