Warlocks and witches in a dance;
Nae cotillion brent-new frae France’

For #BurnsNight & my #Scottish weekly word I decided to #illustrate a love poem + learned that 'jo' meant sweetheart or love or dearest or joy. 'John Anderson, my Jo.' https://t.co/JSMpBwrYf5
"Till a’ the seas gang dry, my dear,
And the rocks melt wi’ the sun;
I will love thee still, my dear,
While the sands o’ life shall run"
- A Red, Red Rose by Robert Burns
We hope you a have a wonderful Burns Night filled with celebration and poetry
