Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:
Could I suggest poetry in translation!?

You might want to look at Jacques Roubaud, French contemporary poet and mathematician!. I know he has been translated into English (he translates himself from English into French)!.

And I would also like to suggest a Polish poet recommended by somebody we used to know: Boleslaw Lesmian!. There is a book called Boleslaw Lesmian, The Poet and his Poetry by Rochelle Stone!. His poetry is wonderful!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

There is another sky by Emily Dickinson

There is another sky,
Ever serene and fair,
And there is another sunshine,
Though it be darkness there;
Never mind faded forests, Austin,
Never mind silent fields -
Here is a little forest,
Whose leaf is ever green;
Here is a brighter garden,
Where not a frost has been;
In its unfading flowers
I hear the bright bee hum:
Prithee, my brother,
Into my garden come!
