I walked a mile with Pleasure; She chattered all the way, But left me none the wiser For all she had to say. I walked a mile with Sorrow and ne’er a word said she; But oh, the things I learned from her When Sorrow walked with me. эвакуатор одесса ортопедические матрасы цены свадебные платья […]
Amazing Grace by John Newton
Amazing Grace! How sweet the sound That saved a wretch like me! I once was lost, but now am found Was blind, but now I see. ‘Twas Grace that taught my heart to fear, And Grace my fears relieved. How precious did that Grace appear The hour I first believed. Through many dangers, toils, and […]
An Old Man by Constantine Cavafy – (trans. by Manolis Aligizakis)

Birches by Robert Frost
When I see birches bend to left and right Across the line of straighter darker trees, I like to think some boy’s been swinging them. But swinging doesn’t bend them down to stay. Ice-storms do that. Often you must have seen them Loaded with ice a sunny winter morning After a rain. They click upon […]
The Bird On This Body Tree by Kabir
There is a bird on this body tree That dances in the ecstasy of life. No one knows where it is, And who could ever know What its music means? It nests where branches cast deep shadow; It comes in the dusk and flies away at dawn And never says a word of what it […]
