Ok, I do not see Mikilaj around so I will give my take on Hussars song?
Mr Hilary runs into the room screaming that he cant find his glasses.
He searches his trousers, his right and left shoe.
He searches every where, under the couch, patio
stove chimny and piano but to no avail
Suddenly he looks into a mirror and sees that the glasses ore on his nose..
Is this funny? Yes to me it is because the same thing has happened to me

I didn't make this one up myself. Both of my parents used to tell it to me multiple times when I was younger. It's actually a Polish childrens story. I speak Polish and am learning to write, but there's no way I could write that. I believe there are a few more. I need to check my bookshelf for the Polish stories.

Wiersze Instead of looking for all the books, I found this site with lots and lots of the stories or "wiersze." Another one I remember quite well is by Juliana Tuwima. It's called "Bambo," but the only reason I remember it is because of the little boy in it.

Hussar,
What a great site! Thanks for posting this. Lots of "easy reading" (comparatively)
Can you see all the Polish characters? I am getting subsitute symbols for the letters with diacritical marks.

Nice. I can see the Polish characters on the site fine, but they're just messed up when I try to post the stories here...

While on the topic of books and verses. Has anyone here heard of a Polish poet by the name of Bronislawa Betlej? She is from the southern part of Poland and is still alive.

Has anyone here heard of a Polish poet by the name of Bronislawa Betlej? I have not heard of her before, and there is not much I could find on the internet - nothing in English. What can you tell us about her poetry? Nancy
