Robert Burns Poetry

Picture
Bruce & Susan Ridley
Get down and get your Robbie Burns on! Work with or without a net reciting your favorite Burns poetry before a live audience. Compete with other slammers for Burns Bragging Rights! Bruce Ridley conducts this year’s Poetry Slam.​
“O, wad some Power the giftie gie us
To see oursels as others see us!
It wad frae monie a blunder free us,
An' foolish notion.”
― Robert Burns, The Complete Poetical Works of Robert Burns
“There is no such uncertainty as a sure thing.”
― Robert Burns, Collected Poems of Robert Burns
“Ye Hypocrites, are these your pranks
To murder men and gie God thanks
Desist for shame, proceed no further
God won't accept your thanks for murder.”
― Robert Burns
“Some books are lies frae end to end,
And some great lies were never penn'd...”
― Robert Burns
