"I was thinking about a poetry thread, this one that means a lot to me....not Scottish but heard it again today, love it..... The Guy in the Glass When you get what you want in your struggle for pelf, And the world makes you King for a day, Then go to the mirror and look at yourself, And see what that guy has to say. For it isn't your Father, or Mother, or Wife, Who judgement upon you must pass. The feller whose verdict counts most in your life Is the guy staring back from the glass. He's the feller to please, never mind all the rest, For he's with you clear up to the end, And you've passed your most dangerous, difficult test If the guy in the glass is your friend. You may be like Jack Horner and "chisel" a plum, And think you're a wonderful guy, But the man in the glass says you're only a bum If you can't look him straight in the eye. You can fool the whole world down the pathway of years, And get pats on the back as you pass, But your final reward will be heartaches and tears If you've cheated the guy in the glass. Dale Wimbrow" | |||

"Quite a fan of Magonigles short poems. There was a coo but its no there noo." To slightly correct the masterpiece it actually reads On yonder hill there stands a coo Its no there noo it must have shifted. Im sure it is McGonnigle. | |||
