Well, Robbie Burns liked to drink a bit, that is true, but I shouldn't encourage you to make sweeping generalisations. :)Quote:

Chinarose: Yes, 'A red red rose' is good. Have you heard it sung?
LostPrincess13: yes, looks like a good topic for a thread. I'll make one. :)

P.S: I remeber one person read this song with one theme song "brave heart " behind it, and I believe the poem and this song match perfectly with each other:p
Here's quite a good version of the song:

It reminds me anther poem "The last rose of summer" of Thomas Moore. And it has also been adapted into one song.
:) Burns has been on the site since 2006, but his name appears near the bottom of the (alphabetical) Author Forums Index for some strange reason :goof:
Thanks! :)
