gruk

Gruki to proste wierszyki duńskiego matematyka Pieta Heina. Jest ich dużo, np. taki:

The road to wisdom? -- Well, it's plain
and simple to express:
Err
and err
and err again
but less
and less
and less.

Jak mądrym być? To łatwe dość
a przepis prosty jest:
więc błądź
i błądź
i znowu błądź
lecz mniej
i mniej
i mniej.

Sens na pewno oddałem :)
Tu jest więcej.

lovely as a tree

I think that I shall never see
A billboard lovely as a tree.
Perhaps, unless the billboards fall,
I'll never see a tree at all.
Ogden Nash, "Song of the Open Road," 1933

I think that I shall never see
A poem lovely as a tree.
A tree whose hungry mouth is prest
Against the earth's sweet flowing breast;
A tree that looks at God all day
And lifts her leafy arms to pray;
A tree that may in Summer wear
A nest of robins in her hair;
Upon whose bosom snow has lain;
Who intimately lives with rain.
Poems are made by fools like me,
But only God can make a tree.
Joyce Kilmer, "Trees," 1914
