Ex-Pat
John Thomson, formerly of Ayr, now in Ontario, Canada, sent his own short
ode to the bard.
ODE TO ROBERT BURNS
Rovi'n
o'er a Carrick glen
Oding wae a feather pen
Brukin thoughts o love and beauty
Erdin awe that is sae murky
Roosed be your works o rhyme
That they may last through endless time
Because abin
them awe ye stand
Unca praised o'er every land
Remembered in our thoughts each time
New year revelers combine
Singing loud your AULD LANG SYNE
John Thomson
Born in Ayr 1933
