Szczerze to niezbyt mi się te wiersze podobały, ale w moim wydaniu były obok siebie oryginal i tlumaczenie, wiec mozna bylo sobie prześledzić wybory tlumacza i to akurat bylo bardzo fajne.

A good collection of poetry. I don't usually like poetry, but some of the poems genuinely made me feel emotions. Which is rare for me.

Very strange to read such simple poetry by an author who is known for his very complicated prose. That's not a bad thing, just surprising. The poems in this are really straightforward, all related to love.
I don't particularly like romantic poetry, so I think these are just fine, but my favourite was "Gentle Lady, Do not Sing":

Gentle lady, do not sing
Sad songs about the end of love
Lay aside sadness and sing
How love that passes is enough
