"I Don't Like Flowers..."
I don't like flowers - they do remind me often Of funerals, of weddings and of balls; Their presence on tables for a dinner calls. But sub-eternal roses' ever simple charm Which was my solace when I was a child, Has stayed - my heritage - a set of years behind, Like Mozart's ever-living music's hum. Translated by Yevgeny Bonver, December, 2001 Edited by Dmitry Karshtedt, August, 2001
