Sally's Poetic Apologies
Waugh’s Well Walk 2021
Eeh ah wish ah could be theer wi’ thi walkin’ o’er them fells
bur a cornt tha sees because ah’m noan feelin’ very well,
Ah con look reet through mi window an see them ‘ills o’ green
an a know tha’ll all bi theer though tha surely cornt bi seen.
Bur ah’ll bi theer i’ spirit an’ ah know Sid will noan bi laggin
as theau recites Ned Woff’s poems as theau tucks intoh th’baggin.
We allus ‘ad a concert but tha doesn’t need that neaw fer sure
when tha con sing a merry tune whist gazin’ o’er Scout Moor.
Tha con lissen to th’brids singin’ like layrocks merry shrill
an see th’ purple heather bloomin’ as tha rambles o’er yond ‘ill
So enjoy thissels and layf an’ joke an’ sing a merry tune
an’ what is mooer ah wish thi aw a very happy afternoon.
