Let's make this birthday one to remember.

92 years old (Born on March 31, 1933)

Happy Birthday, Nichita! May your day be filled with poetic inspiration and endless metaphors—though we suspect you've already cornered the market on those. Ever since "The Aim of Love" first graced our shelves, we've been happily tangled in your verses; rumor has it even Cupid takes notes from you now.

Winning the Herder Prize was impressive enough—but being nominated for a Nobel? Clearly you're aiming higher than love these days! Keep charming us all with words that dance gracefully between profound wisdom and playful mischief. Here's to another year of poetry so timelessly brilliant it'll make Shakespeare jealous!
