On January the 25th, it's 250 years since the birth of Robert Burns. He's Scotland's national bard and one of (if not THE) most revered poets from that country. He's famous for mostly writing in the Scottish language, having pioneered the romanticism movement and for being a great lover of womenkind. His work include poems and songs like "Auld Lang Syne", "Address to a Haggis" and "To a mouse" (of which John Steinbeck got the title "Of Mice and Men", from a line contained in the second-to-last stanza: "The best laid schemes o' mice an' men / Gang aft agley".)
In commemoration of the great poet, every year on the 25th of January there's a sort of second national day in Scotland, and all over the world it's celebrated with a Burns supper. It's a tradition to make it just like it was in the olden days, with as little variation as possible. The supper classically contains haggis to eat, whisky to drink and reading of a Burns poem for entertaining the guests.

There's lots more to tell of him, but that's not what this post was supposed to be about. What I'm proposing is to celebrate the 25th by sifting something by Burns, about him or concerning that theme of poetry.
Finding something you deem worthy to sift will not be a problem, because there's a lot of really good things out there. Some of which you're very familiar I'm sure, some of which you're vaguely familiar and some of which you've never heard before.
Who knows, we might even be able to catch the eyes of some future contributing members from Scotland. What's for certain is that we'd definately warm their hearts with the good kind of national pride and the best kind of publicity. We might even expand our own horizons aswell, the possibilities are endless!
