For National Poetry Day 2011, the Scottish Poetry Library produced poetry postcards, including this one:

We had the poem read in Gaelic by Chrisma Bould from the School of Scottish Studies (http://www.celtscot.ed.ac.uk/) and played for our students so that they could experience hearing Gaelic.
All the other 8 poems are here - you can get a PDF or Word document of each poem:

ELTC students might have read a selection of these 8 poems in class and they might have written their own ones as well.
A favourite one has been this one: http://www.spl.org.uk/ed_npd/2011_03.htm
