Have you ever been to Scotland? <br />It's where English is spoken with the sweetest accent <br />It's where people roll their 'r''s and call each other 'mate' <br />It's where the whiskey is single-malt and it's to die for <br />It's where guys are named Ian, <br />play rugby and look pretty damn good <br />It's where 'cheers' is called 'slaandjivaa' <br />It's where Glenmorangie and Isle of Jura is made <br />It's where men wear kilts <br />(noone has ever looked this good in a skirt) <br />and bagpipers play in every corner. <br /> <br />Ever been to Edinburgh? <br />Ever seen that castle from Princess street? <br />It's the city where the friendliest people live <br />People open, warm, fun-loving and hospitable <br />People eager to get to know a stranger like me <br />Eager to buy me drinks, to show me around town, <br />Eager to party, to sing, to do the karaoke thing, <br />To walk to just about every pub in town <br />To smoke, to laugh, to arm-wrestle, to stay up all night <br /> <br />Ever been to Arthur's seat at night? <br />Ever seen the views from up there? <br />I've been there myself <br />I've sat around a fire <br />with artists and festival performers <br />Drinking whiskey and champagne <br />A complete stranger all by myself <br />Yet feeling so well embraced by everybody <br /> <br />Ever been to Scotland? <br />If you haven't, you gotta go up there, <br />Meet some of the coolest people on earth <br />Feel the magic, have fun, keep an open mind <br />Let the place inspire you, let the culture affect you, <br />And come back a different person...<br /><br />CeCe Lamberts<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/have-you-ever-been-to-scotland/
