A Scottish Jest Poem Verses

In Scottish lands, where laughter rang,
A friendship bloomed, as bagpipes sang,
Our dear friend, a witty soul,
A life of laughter, their only goal.

From Highlands to Lowlands, we'd roam,
A chorus of laughter, our hearts' true home,
Their humor, a treasure, a gift to share,
A Scottish jest, beyond compare.

We'll miss their wit, their laughter sweet,
But smile recalling their comical feats,
Our dear friend, forever near,
A Scottish jest, in memory clear.
