My heart’s in the Highlands, my heart is not here,
My heart’s in the Highlands, a-chasing the deer;
Chasing the wild-deer, and following the roe,
My heart’s in the Highlands, wherever I go.
Farewell to the Highlands, farewell to the North,
The birth-place of Valour, the country of Worth ;
Wherever I wander, wherever I rove,
The hills of the Highlands for ever I love.
Farewell to the mountains, high-cover’d with snow,
Farewell to the straths and green vallies below;
Farewell to the forests and wild-hanging woods,
Farewell to the torrents and loud-pouring floods.
My heart’s in the Highlands, my heart is not here,
My heart’s in the Highlands, a-chasing the deer;
Chasing the wild-deer, and following the roe,
My heart’s in the Highlands, wherever I go.
— Robert Burns, 1789

For Burns Night, the surprisingly connected origins of "haggis" and "mediocre".

Its burns night in Scotland so I made this Highlands inspired piece and it really reminded me of the Katie Morag books that I used to read as a kid. ----- #burnsnight #scotland #scottishhighlands #scottishhighlander #katiemorag #celebration #dance #landscape #illustration #illustrator #happyburnsnight #robertburns #charlotsart #childrensbookillustrator #childrensillustrations #picturebookillustration #kidlitillustration #kidlitart #childrensillustrator #digitalillustrator #digitalillustration #watercolouranddigitalillustration (at Scottish Highlands) https://www.instagram.com/p/Cn2S5yQsUxR/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Address to a Haggis
Robert Burns
Fair fa’ your honest, sonsie face, Great Chieftain o’ the Puddin-race! Aboon them a’ ye tak your place, Painch, tripe, or thairm: Weel are ye wordy of a grace As lang ‘s my arm.
The groaning trencher there ye fill, Your hurdies like a distant hill, Your pin wad help to mend a mill In time o’ need, While thro’ your pores the dews distil Like amber bead.
His knife see Rustic-labour dight, An’ cut ye up wi’ ready slight, Trenching your gushing entrails bright, Like onie ditch; And then, O what a glorious sight, Warm-reekin, rich!
Then, horn for horn, they stretch an’ strive: Deil tak the hindmost, on they drive, Till a’ their weel-swall’d kytes belyve Are bent like drums; Then auld Guidman, maist like to rive, Bethankit hums.
Is there that owre his French ragout, Or olio that wad staw a sow, Or fricassee wad mak her spew Wi’ perfect sconner, Looks down wi’ sneering, scornfu’ view On sic a dinner?
Poor devil! see him owre his trash, As feckless as a wither’d rash, His spindle shank a guid whip-lash, His nieve a nit; Thro’ bluidy flood or field to dash, O how unfit!
But mark the Rustic, haggis-fed, The trembling earth resounds his tread, Clap in his walie nieve a blade, He’ll make it whissle; An’ legs, an’ arms, an’ heads will sned, Like taps o’ thrissle.
Ye Pow’rs wha mak mankind your care, And dish them out their bill o’ fare, Auld Scotland wants nae skinking ware That jaups in luggies; But, if ye wish her gratefu’ prayer, Gie her a Haggis!

My youngest brothers (twins!) sent me a traditional Burns Night supper in a box, as my birthday falls on the traditional holiday! I laughed so hard I cried, and the kittens are OBSESSED with that rutabega. The card reads "sending our best wishes to you this Burns Night" (their birthday is the day after mine, and now I have to figure out something cool!) #burnsnight #myfam #beweirdstayweird #neepsandtatties #haggis #robertburns #quirtles https://www.instagram.com/p/CnxJ6QipqMO/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
