POEM TITLE A Gid Day at Blackness on Sea


POEM Ma nose twitches tae the smell o the sea air I could be onywhere but the castle I

see tells me where...

Blackness castle nae less it's a place of wondrous aww and the fortress demands

me tae explore.

I spend hours searching and imagining old Scots tales, an when I'm fair weary my stomach starts to growl.

I am needing fed, whaur else tae go but the majestic lobster pot. But now I face a conundrum whit tae have.

I Cannae resist the surf and turf, all washed down with a fine pale ale.

My bellys full and my mind is clear, my days been braw now I must clear, goodbye Blackness on Sea I will be back I can't be away long you'll soon call me back.
