As part of a competition run by Tesco, we have been writing our own versions of this Burns classic in P45. Here are 2 great versions of the poem written by Abbie and Harry.<\/p>\n

The Slaughter of the Haggis\"\"<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

The gleaming feast,<\/p>\n

Sliding into a watering mouth,<\/p>\n

Which tenderly is swallowed down,<\/p>\n

With pleasure and love.<\/p>\n

A courageous taste,<\/p>\n

Which melts into charging bombs,<\/p>\n

That sings luxuriously,<\/p>\n

Like a bagpipe.<\/p>\n

Surrounded by armed neeps and tatties,<\/p>\n

But the haggis defeats them,<\/p>\n

Because he is crowned the most scrumptious of them all,<\/p>\n

The king of gleaming feast.<\/p>\n

Haggis Running Late<\/strong><\/p>\n

Ye Haggis running up and doon,<\/p>\n

I cannae wait to attack ye wi\u2019 me spoon,<\/p>\n

I\u2019m hunting you, so don\u2019t be late,<\/p>\n

My bonnie lass just cannae wait.<\/p>\n

Tonight the yowfing dug winnae feast,<\/p>\n

We\u2019ll slobber you all up my beast,<\/p>\n

My sgian dubh will briefly slice,<\/p>\n

Your puddins gushing out with spice.<\/p>\n
