In the house of eight fraction one
At the outpost of Ilyich
There lived a tall citizen
Nicknamed Kalancha,
By the name of Stepanov
And by the name of Stepan,
Of the regional giants
The most important giant.
There was a tram number ten (One rhyme)

What do you have?
A poem about boasting in the evening. The guys tell each other about what they have: we have gas in our apartment, and we have running water, I have a nail in my pocket, someone's cat gave birth to kittens. But the main conclusion, no matter what the guys argued about, is that different mothers are needed, and it doesn’t matter who they work for.

Great about verses:
Poetry is like painting: one work will captivate you more if you look at it closely, and another if you move further away.
Little cutesy poems irritate the nerves more than the creak of unoiled wheels.
The most valuable thing in life and in poetry is that which has broken.
Marina Tsvetaeva
Of all the arts, poetry is most tempted to replace its own idiosyncratic beauty with stolen glitter.
Humboldt W.
Poems succeed if they are created with spiritual clarity.
The writing of poetry is closer to worship than is commonly believed.
If only you knew from what rubbish Poems grow without shame... Like a dandelion near a fence, Like burdocks and quinoa.
A. A. Akhmatova
Poetry is not in verses alone: it is spilled everywhere, it is around us. Take a look at these trees, at this sky - beauty and life breathe from everywhere, and where there is beauty and life, there is poetry.
I. S. Turgenev
For many people, writing poetry is a growing pain of the mind.
G. Lichtenberg
A beautiful verse is like a bow drawn through the sonorous fibers of our being. Not our own - our thoughts make the poet sing inside us. Telling us about the woman he loves, he delightfully awakens in our souls our love and our sorrow. He is a wizard. Understanding him, we become poets like him.
Where graceful verses flow, there is no place for vainglory.
Murasaki Shikibu
I turn to Russian versification. I think that over time we will turn to blank verse. There are too few rhymes in Russian. One calls the other. The flame inevitably drags the stone behind it. Because of the feeling, art certainly peeps out. Who is not tired of love and blood, difficult and wonderful, faithful and hypocritical, and so on.
Alexander Sergeevich Pushkin
- ... Are your poems good, tell yourself?
- Monstrous! Ivan suddenly said boldly and frankly.
- Do not write anymore! the visitor asked pleadingly.
I promise and I swear! - solemnly said Ivan ...
Mikhail Afanasyevich Bulgakov. "The Master and Margarita"
We all write poetry; poets differ from the rest only in that they write them with words.
John Fowles. "The French Lieutenant's Mistress"
Every poem is a veil stretched out on the points of a few words. These words shine like stars, because of them the poem exists.
Alexander Alexandrovich Blok
The poets of antiquity, unlike modern ones, rarely wrote more than a dozen poems during their long lives. It is understandable: they were all excellent magicians and did not like to waste themselves on trifles. Therefore, behind every poetic work of those times, a whole Universe is certainly hidden, filled with miracles - often dangerous for someone who inadvertently wakes dormant lines.
Max Fry. "The Talking Dead"
To one of my clumsy hippos-poems, I attached such a heavenly tail: ...
Mayakovsky! Your poems do not warm, do not excite, do not infect!
- My poems are not a stove, not a sea and not a plague!
Vladimir Vladimirovich Mayakovsky
Poems are our inner music, clothed in words, permeated with thin strings of meanings and dreams, and therefore drive away critics. They are but miserable drinkers of poetry. What can a critic say about the depths of your soul? Don't let his vulgar groping hands in there. Let the verses seem to him an absurd lowing, a chaotic jumble of words. For us, this is a song of freedom from tedious reason, a glorious song that sounds on the snow-white slopes of our amazing soul.
Boris Krieger. "A Thousand Lives"
Poems are the thrill of the heart, the excitement of the soul and tears. And tears are nothing but pure poetry that has rejected the word.

A bronze monument about six meters high in honor of the literary hero Sergei Mikhalkov, Uncle Styopa, was installed in the center of Samara, in a pedestrian zone on Leningradskaya Street, NTV.ru reports. The sculpture was created by Zurab Tsereteli with funds raised by employees and veterans of the internal affairs bodies, as well as other residents of the city. It took two and a half million rubles to make the art object. Tsereteli refused the fee.
The writer's son Nikita Mikhalkov, his widow Yulia Subbotina and the creator of the monument came to the opening. They tried to coincide with the event simultaneously with the 80th anniversary of "Uncle Styopa", celebrated in this year, and the annual Police Day, which will be celebrated on November 10.
Samarans compared "Uncle Styopa" with the local prototype - foreman Oleg Malinin, who was known and loved by many. There is a popular legend in the city about how a strict guard fined the deputy chief of police, who crossed the road in the wrong place. Malinin patrolled the territory just in the place where the sculpture was installed.
In 2014, a monument to Uncle Styopa appeared in Nizhny Novgorod. It was made by Sergei Melnikov from St. Petersburg. The sculpture, 4.5 meters high, was compared by many in social networks with a children's craft and called a "scarecrow" and a "werewolf in uniform", noting that it does not correspond to the image of a literary hero. Other commentators noted that such an image would be clear to children.
Sergei Mikhalkov - famous Soviet writer, poet, playwright, public figure— was born in 1913 in Moscow. Author of the texts of the hymns of the Soviet Union and the anthem Russian Federation. He is best known for his works for children. Especially popular was his poem "Uncle Styopa" about a good-natured giant policeman. Mikhalkov died in 2009
