On my trip to Scotland last summer, I visited The Globe Inn in Dumfries, once frequented by the Bard of Ayrshire, the Ploughman Poet, the great Robert Burns. I wrote a poem while enjoying the Haggis, Mashed ‘Neeps and Champit Tatties, and posted a rough draft that evening. After a couple of workshops the final version now appears on dine AND rhyme, the premier restaurant and poetry website. Check it out!
