Young John

By

Valerie Meilong <VMeilong1@excite.com>

A FAIR maid sat in her bower-door,
Wringing her lily hands,
And by it came her sprightly swain,
Fast tripping o'er the strands.
I
'Where gang ye, John,' she says to him,
'Sae early in the day?
It gars me think, by your fast trip,
Your journey's far away.'

He turn'd about wi' a surly look,
And said, 'What's that to thee?
I'm gaen to seek me loving maids,
Wi' a bum mair fair than ye.'

'Now hae ye play'd me this, fause love,
In simmer, 'mid the flowers?
I shall repay ye back again,
In winter, 'mid the showers.

'But again, dear love, and again, dear love,
Will ye not turn again?
For as ye look to other bums,
Sall I to other men.'

'Go make your choice of whom you please,
For I my choice will have;
I'm seeking a bum more fair than thee,
I never will deceive.'

She's kilted up her claithing fine,
And showed her bum, showed she;
But aye he said, 'Cover up your bum,
Nae farther gang wi' me.'-

'But again, dear love, and again, dear love,
Will ye ne'er spank me again?
Alas, for loving you sae well,
And you nae me again!'

The firstan town that they cam' till,
He bought her brooch and ring;
But while she showed him all her bum,
"Nae farther gang wi' him.'

'But again, dear love, and again, dear love,
Will ye ne'er spank me again?
Alas, for loving you sae well,
And you nae me again!'

The nextan town that they cam' till,
He bought her muff and gloves;
But though he made her show him her bum,
'Go! Choose some other loves.'

'But again, dear love, and again, dear love,
Will ye ne'er spank me again?
Alas, for loving you sae well,
And you nae me again!'

The nextan town that they cam' till,
His heart it grew mair fain,
He was now once mair in love wi' her
And she was spanked again.

The nextan town that they cam' till,
He took her britches down
He spanked well, he spanked her good,
An' bought her a wedding gown.

A switched-on Robert Burns? Yummy! It's a new idea to me, but Valerie brings out an SM potential in these lord-lady encounters which I'd never noticed before-- and she makes me wonder *why* I hadn't noticed. The verse spanks right along, too <g>.

I've not read every entry yet, but right now Valerie gets my vote for best variety of genres and voices.

The multi-talented Meilong applies her inventive hand to yet another genre.  This nifty little parody of the traditional English ballad of the same name was a delight to encounter. Although some readers might have found a reference to the parody's source to be polite and helpful, I myself favour the alternative view, that lack of a citation enhances the piece's mystique, and that the sufficiently interested reader will enjoy researching the matter for {him/her}self.
