Burns

Read well-known Scottish poet [1759-1796] Robert Burns' famous "Halloween" poem as fall rolls in here; here's a little excerpt:

[...]
Whyles owre a linn the burnie plays,
As through the glen it wimpl’t;
Whyles round a rocky scaur it strays;
Whyles in a wiel it dimpl’t;
Whyles glitter’d to the nightly rays,
Wi’ bickering, dancing dazzle;
Whyles cookit underneath the braes,
Below the spreading hazel,
Unseen that night.
