Mah Bonnie Lassie
Scottish take on the Love in 50 Words Challenge. It's Burns Night tonight on January 25th, so seems appropriate.

Mah Bonnie Lassie, Ruth!
Yer a bonnie wee lassie
it's true
ah pinch mahsel'
when ah contemplate
life wae ye by mah side
day-in day-oot
tho' we scale the
highest Bens an'
face choppy waters
o' the deepest lochs
ah widnae wantae face
whit life throws
wae oot mah bonnie lassie
