yes I do read books of national poets like Mihai Eminescu,Tudor Arghezi,George Bacovia.These are few from the list of the poets I have read.Reading makes me have a better perception of my feelings whenever I feel sad and without any mood.

I adore poetry. My favourite poets are Gerald Manley Hopkins, John Donne and Seamus Heaney (but not his political work)

Camomile Tea by Katherine Mansfield Outside the sky is light with stars; There's a hollow roaring from the sea. And, alas! for the little almond flowers, The wind is shaking the almond tree. How little I thought, a year ago, In the horrible cottage upon the Lee That he and I should be sitting so And sipping a cup of camomile tea. Light as feathers the witches fly, The horn of the moon is plain to see; By a firefly under a jonquil flower A goblin toasts a bumble-bee. We might be fifty, we might be five, So snug, so compact, so wise are we! Under the kitchen-table leg My knee is pressing against his knee. Our shutters are shut, the fire is low, The tap is dripping peacefully; The saucepan shadows on the wall Are black and round and plain to see.
