(sorry to have pipped you Linkat)
tired of your whining...
(funny you don't seem sorry - you seem kind of proud)
whining glass of Chardonnay
brie cheese
(to go with the whine :-) )
oldies never die, they just play away
Away, away,
But, och! I cast my eye
On prospects drear!
An' forward tho' I canna see,
I guess an fear!
(worst) fears were realized
Realized, least fears..........
It's from a poem "To a Louse"
by, Burns
"O wad some power the giftie gie us,
To see oursels as others see us!
It wad frae monie a blunder free us
And foolish notion:
What airs in dress an' gait wad lea'e us
And ev'n Devotion!"
-----
One of my personal favorites is.............
"To a Mouse"
by Burns
Sends a personal message to each reader.
-----
Actually, the origin of the phrase - "the best laid plans of mice and men"
-----------Which
in the poem is =
"The best laid schemes o' mice an' men
Gang aft a-gley,
An' lea'e us nought but grief an' pain,
For promised joy."
by - Robert Burns
All to be treasured.
