Listen to me reading my poem here
The wee bairns in the sea,
The soond o the waves crashin,
The lasses scurling,
The mither pitting on sincream,
The whisperin o the mas an das,
Wee laddies learnin tae swim,
The beach?
A blimmin zoo filled wi fowk!
Goin tae the beach
Sand in yer taes
Salt water in yer moo
Fowk freezin cald
As the waves come ower yer heed
Abdees laughin
You ging awa and get an ice-cream
As you come back
it fas in the san
So you ging back and get another een
As you ging hame
you think tae yer sell
fit a fun day at the beach
Listen to my poem here
Fowk playin’ fitba afore school,
Bringin their bikes ti school,
The bell rings the bairns go inside,
Tae dae their work,
Play time comes,
It passes quick,
They finish a their work,
lunch time comes,
The bairns eat their denner,
Ging oot ti i playground an play,
They play skippin an ’hide an tig,’
The bell soonds time tae line up,
They ging back inside,
Deen a their work,
Went hame loved the day.
Lassies buying clithes , Mannies gettin’ bonny presents,
Roaring cars awae,
Fowk shouting “Taxi!,”
Lads whispering “Lets get a bite tae eat,”
Auld folk buying newspapers,
Tae see fits gan on in the world,
anither day in toon.
Listen here to me reading my poem and read it below
Twa days in a trot its been rainin noo,
Fowk gain aboot we brollys,
Fan I go oot the windaes start to brack,
I feel bitties o hard rack aff ma heed,
I hear fowk jumping aboot in puddles,
As I come in fae that that huge shower ,
Gled to be hame.

Teeny wee beasties,
Eating awa at their food,
A tak im oot,
N’d gae im a clap,
een runs awa.
A put the other een back,
Am greetin ti misel,
Mi Ma comes in i room
”Av foond im,” she says.
The gerbil gings back in ‘is cage,
Tiny wee beasties,
Safe and soond.
In writing, we have been writing poems in Scots dialect which is our usual dialect outside school. Here is my one about shopping in town. Listen to me reading it here.
Lassies runnin to get a the bargins,
Wee bairns scurlin, “I’ve lost ma ma,”
Listenin to the pingin o the tills,
Fowk whisperin, “I got this for twa pound,”
Ootside the shops there’s a sea a fowk,
I’m drappin a ma clithes as the fowk rush past,
Fit a day at the shops!
In the Duthie park,
Riding my scooter,
I’m really happy,
It is nice and sunny,
What will I do next?
In the Duthie Park,
Eating an ice-cream,
Mmm, it’s delicious,
It is toffee flavoured,
Will I go to the swings?
In the Duthie Park,
Looking at a Dachshund,
I’m really surprised,
They’re my Favourite breed of dog,
Will I ever get one of my own?
In the Duthie Park,
We walk to the car,
I’m exhausted,
It is getting cloudy,
I’m glad we’re going home!
My Teddy Emily
My teddy Emily,
Wondering whether she’ll come to life,
Delighted to see her,
Beautiful to me,
As I squeeze her really hard.
My teddy Emily,
Thinking can she see or hear me?
Looking forward to cuddling her,
Soft as a brand new cushion,
As I nuzzle into her fur.
My teddy Emily,
Thinking to my self I like her but does she like me?
Caring for my favourite toy,
Her fur all silky smooth,
As I cuddle her while I fall asleep.
My teddy Emily,
Wondering if I’ll have her forever,
Loving her like a pet,
Glinting beady eyes,
As I realize she has fallen off my bed in the
morning.
