From Neruda's Book of Questions

"Is it true that amber contains
The tears of sirens?

What do they call a flower
That flies from bird to bird?

Isn't it better never than late?

And why did cheese decide
to perform heroic deeds in France?"

Pablo Neruda
The Book of Questions
trans. by William O' Daly
