В День всех влюблённых поделюсь валентинкой от американского поэта Огдена Нэша (1902-1971). Небольшой словарик, по традиции, прилагается :) To My Valentine More than a catbird hates a cat, Or a criminal hates a clue, Or the Axis hates the United States, That's how much I love you. I love you more than a duck can swim, And more than a grapefruit squirts, I love you more than a gin rummy is a bore, And more than a toothache hurts. As a shipwrecked sailor hates the sea, Or a juggler hates a shove, As a hostess detests unexpected guests, That's how much you I love. I love you more than a wasp can sting, And more than the subway jerks, I love you as much as a beggar needs a crutch, And more than a hangnail irks. I swear to you by the stars above, And below, if such there be, As the High Court loathes perjurious oathes, That's how you're loved by me. catbird - название птицы clue - улика Axis - страны Оси во Второй Мировой gin rummy - род карточной игры more than juggler hates a shove - больше, чем жонглёр ненавидит, когда его толкают beggar - бродяга, crutch - костыль hangnail - заусенец, irk - бесить perjurious oaths - лжесвидетельство
