Scottish Renga 2

January 26th, 2007

By Primary 5, Cornhill School

Scotland is a smart place to live.

With the very huge mountains

and bonny big cities.

Scotland is really pretty.

Thistles are our emblem.

A Scottish tradition.

Haggis, potatoes, good for eating.

The flag is blue, white, big.

Robbie Burns was a famous poet

William Wallace was a hero

Like Robert the Bruce

About 700 years ago

Scotland footballers are ace

Glasgow is Celtics home

My favourite Scottish team

Their colours are white and green

Dennis Law is a famous footballer

My dear Great Grandad’s brother

He played for Scotland

He makes me proud

Scotland’s got everything:

Landmarks

Wildlife

Fish and chips

Cornhill School, in the city of Aberdeen

Scotland is the best.

    Yeah that was a good poem - Scotland is the best I agree!
    That poem sure did cover a lot of the Scottish identity. I really liked the way the heroes and emblems were given a personal twist with lines like

    My favourite Scottish team

    and

    Dennis Law is a famous footballerMy dear Great Grandad’s brother
