Charlie Gillen
Here’s a collection of poems from rhymer and performer Charlie Gillen from Dervock, County Antrim, who’s making a lot of appearances at various Ulster-Scots cultural events. He’s one of the contemporary Ulster-Scots poets/rhymers and is a very prolific writer. If you ever have a chance to hear Charlie, take it because they don’t come more real than this!
