The Hopeless Poet

I am a man who longs to write
To create tales of beauty;
I cannot do it as myself
But await a spark to summon Muse.
Feel it come, soft and sudden:
Hear it whispering on the air;
Come as sudden springtime shower
Or sweet lover to secret bower.
Long I wait for it to come,
Armed with paper, pen, and quill:
But every time I feel it rise
In fear I do suppress it.

Contented Wi' Little, And Cantie Wi' Mair - Robert Burns
Contented wi' little and cantie wi' mair,
Whene'er I forgather wi' Sorrow and Care,
I gie them a skelp, as they're creepin alang,
Wi' a cog o' guid swats and an auld Scottish sang.

I whyles claw the elbow o' troublesome Thought;
But Man is a soger, and Life is a faught.
My mirth and guid humour are coin in my pouch,
And my Freedom's my lairdship nae monarch daur touch.

A towmond o' trouble, should that be my fa',
A night o' guid fellowship sowthers it a':
When at the blythe end o' our journey at last,
Wha the Deil ever thinks o' the road he has past?

Blind Chance, let her snapper and stoyte on her way,
Be't to me, be't frae me, e'en let the jade gae!
Come Ease or come Travail, come Pleasure or Pain,
My warst word is:- ' Welcome, and welcome again!'
