Poetry in Plaid Bagpipes ring in my ears Coloring my dreams in plaid I smell the mist of the mountains And soft air that melts into dew Lush green carpets the ground While the wind carries a plaintive song And trips over the tap of the snare Leading me to a home I may never know - Alison |

Really, really like this one, Alison gal. Scotland is one of the places that inspire thoughts like this, along with Ireland, Hawaii, islands in the south Pacific and other exotic lands....places we know so much of we can almost taste them but have never, and may never, see. You always come up with such interesting topics! |

Ah, the mysterious and compelling story of inner sanctum thoughts which come from nowhere and may lead to adventure with a good chance for peace and comfort at the end of the journey. At least that is what this goy got out of it. Nice work. Suicidal twin kills sister by mistake! |

DS, Come to think of it, it could have been ice rattling in the pipes too! Thanks, friend of mine. Ali-san - 'Deer, Isn't it funny how some places call to us. I just write where my mind goes. Scarey, huh. xoxoxo Alison - Thank you for reading, Jerry. There are places that just make me want to curl up and relax when I think of them. Scotland is not one of those places (grins) ~ so much history and war. A |

I love to hear bagpipes. Coming from a Scottish background. I think Scotland is in the blood and is always that faraway home even if you've never been there. Ida |

Owl, Thank you, darling one. A - Eric, Thank you, again, for reading and letting me know what you think. Alison - Thanks a lot, Lori. I do appreciate you. Alison - Steaven, Thank you and it's good to see you again. I have some reading to catch up on and your poetry is on that list.
