DESCRIPTION:

Burns Night Supper is celebrated every year on January 25 in Scotland and among poetry lovers worldwide.

On this night, people honor the life, art, and satire of Robert Burns, considered one of the greatest poets and bards ever produced in Scotland. Burns was born on January 25, 1759, and died on July 21, 1796, at age 37.

His closest friends organized the first Burns Night Supper six years after his death in 1802. They gathered, read his poems, sang his songs, ate haggis, and drank to his memory.

Lovers of Burns' poetry have been doing the same every year.

His most famous works include the following:
Auld Lang Syne (The New Year's Song)
To a Mouse (Which inspired Steinbeck's title of "Mice and Men")
And the collection "Poems, Chiefly in the Scottish Dialect."

Oh, and if you ever take the citizenship test for the United Kingdom, you will do well to know who Robert Burns is. Yes, you will be tested!
