Poems about native country.

***

You may choose a friend and a brother

But you can never choose your native land!

You may choose everything in the world!

But you can never choose your Motherland!

Красивый, щедрый, милый край

Полей, садов и дали синей;

Люби, цени, оберегай

Все, что зовем с тобой Россией!

• Peel potatoes, wash them cold water and cut into large pieces.

• Let cook until the potatoes are tender. To check if the potatoes are done, poke a piece of potato with a fork.
