I’ve never met anyone else
Who could spin a tale like you
Who tied people in knots with laughter
Who turned the air so cheekily blue
You were a master of your trade
The likes of which there’ll only ever be one
I’ll never forget your stories
Even now you’re gone
You’ll always be my hero
And a treasure to many more
I hope one day we’ll meet again
My Glaswegian raconteur

Glaswegian! I’ve never thought of what one calls a citizen of Glasgow.
It sounds much better than my first thought, Glasgowian 😂💚

Rebuttal.
This is not a reflection of the author. Thank you in advance for suffering this silliness.
Benjamin,
Brother’s Campfire.
……….
“Oh really?” It was the Bard.
Brother grabbed his shoulder but he pulled away.
The Beast had never seen Galvin this way. Rage was more of his personality.
A tinge of jealous electricity filled the Puking Peasant as the Bard stepped to the front.
He looked to Mel, with the flower tattoo on her wrist. With a flourish he proclaimed,
“Mel,
I’ve been charmed by one with words,
oh so black and blue,
At times it’s brought healing,
the road easier with two.
Acquainted with sorrow
and dark flower accompany,
Encourage budding writer
without charge or any fee
But from the heart you do speak,
not in broad dashes of pen,
But in specific help you work,
time and time again.
I would spin a tale of La Longi,
now and then,
With perhaps an anecdote or two,
with my trusty pen.
A dessert in Glasgow, did eat,
and giddy make you feel,
Good sense to warm near the Campfire,
and eat a hearty meal.”
Galvin the Bard stepped off the stage, for He secretly new he had been bested by the Glasgowian despite the cheers and clapping.
He had won the night, and the crowd, but he had lost the girl.

Aw Brother!! 😁 😁
This is the best!! 👍👍
Made me laugh and cry in equal measure! I love The Bard’s kind words – thank you – and the use of ‘Glasgowian’ is a triumph!! 🤪
But it’s the last line…that resonates on a level I didn’t even know I had.
Thank you so much my friend
🖤🖤🖤
(P. S These would be fab stitched together as one! 👍)
