Most of the poems I know are in German :(

Here is one of my favorites, and my best attempt at a translation:

Aufruf zur Bescheidenheit

Wie nun mal die Dinge liegen
und auch wenn es uns missfällt:
Menschen sind wie Eintagsfliegen
an den Fenstern dieser Welt

Unterschiede sind fast keine
und was wär auch schon dabei
nur: die Fliege hat hat sechs Beine
und der Mensch hat höchstens zwei

-Erich Kästner
A call for humility

As the things are as they are
even if it's not to our liking:
men are just like mayflies
on the windows of this world

Differences are almost none
and what of it if there were
just: the mayfly has six legs
and men no more than two

-Erich Kästner

(I didn't even attempt to keep the rhymes or rhyme scheme, that's not within my abbilities)

Oops!

Last time I commented I said I had a spring cleaning thing in my forum signature, but I realized it was actually a "random raffle" badge. I fixed it now, unless the random raffle badge still would have counted..?

Never put your faith in a Prince.
When you require a miracle,
trust in a Witch.
The red rose whispers of passion,
And the white rose breathes of love;
O, the red rose is a falcon,
And the white rose is a dove.

But I send you a cream-white rosebud
With a flush on its petal tips;
For the love that is purest and sweetest
Has a kiss of desire on the lips.
