I love your post, Mr Almaz!Big smile Recognise your sharp mind there.

I like this short poem of his

A Red, Red Rose
Robert Burns
O, my Luve ´s like a red, red rose,
That ´s newly sprung in June.
O, my Luve ´s like a melodie
That ´s sweetly play ´d in tune.

or that other one:


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:

Happy birthday Mr Burns. Welcome to this great community. Smile

Or "To a Mouse," the seventh verse, contains some of the truest words in the language:
 

But Mousie, thou are no thy-lane,
In proving foresight may be vain:
The best laid schemes o ´ Mice an ´ Men,
Gang aft agley,
An ´ lea ´e us nought but grief an ´ pain,
For promis ´d joy!
