Nice list! [img]smile.gif[/img] There's a poem by Kästner that I really like, it's called "Ein Kubikkilometer genügt" - do you know it?
[/QUOTE]I know and like that one as I can say for most of his poems. It's sad that he's always ridiculed as a children's books author although his books for children are great (entertaining and wise).
My favourite poems are in no intended order
"Jahrgang 1899"
"Wenn wir den Krieg gewonnen hätten"
"Dem Revolutionär Jesus zum Geburtstag"
"Kennst du das Land wo die Kanonen blühn"
I'm sure I missed some great ones but the first three of my list regularly make me cry (which is extremely hard to achieve).
