the cucumber is from our garden and a match-box to show how big the cucumber is:

*souvenir*
This statuette is old Russian porcelain. This kneeling girl, wearing the national dress, is an image from an old Russian fairy-tale. A simple girl finds a malachite box full of jewellery; she opens the box and begins to put the jewellery on, looking at herself in a small malachite-framed looking-glass. As I think, a souvenir like this one is much better than a popular ‘matryoshka’.

*more linguistic tricks*
Hector Hugh Munro (1870–1916), better known by the pen-name Saki, was a British writer, whose witty and sometimes macabre stories I dearly love.
“The name Saki is often thought to be a reference to the cupbearer in the Rubaiyat of Omar Khayyam, a poem mentioned disparagingly by the eponymous character in Reginald on Christmas Presents and alluded to in a few other stories. It may, however, be a reference to the South American primate of the same name, ‘a small, long-tailed monkey from the Western Hemisphere’ that is a central character in The Remoulding of Groby Lington.”
At the same time the pen-name sounds like the name of one small town on the Crimean Peninsula ‘Saky’. The writer could know of the name of the town, because he worked in Russia for some time, and yet it’s scarcely--the town is too small.

*poems found on the Net*
“...true, the night was made for roving,
and the day returns too soon,
but you'll never go for loving
by the candlelight or moon.”
Believe it or not, but one can find some poems on Facebook. If my reader is ready for a drama, then there is one interesting poem:
SHE NEEDS SOMEONE TO HOLD HER WHEN SHE CRIES
SHE NEEDS SOMEONE
TO HOLD HER WHEN SHE CRIES
HER HEART IS COVERED WITH THE SCARS
FROM ALL THE PAIN SHE HOLDS INSIDE
SHES BEEN RAPED,AND SHES BEEN BEAT
MOLESTED FROM HEAD TO FEET
SHE NEEDS SOMEONE
TO HOLD HER WHEN SHE CRIES
YES SHE HAUNTED IN HER MIND
BY ALL THE MEN WHOS BEEN UNKIND
SHES BEEN KICKED AND SHES BEEN BEAT
WAS RAPED AND PUT OUT ON THE STREETS
SHE NEEDS SOMEONE
TO HOLD HER WHEN SHE CRIES
ALL THE THINGS THAT SHES BEEN THREW
ALL THE TIMES SHES BEEN ABUSED
SHE WASNT A LOUD TO HAVE FRIENDS
IF SHE TRIED SHE WAS BEAT AGAIN
SHE NEEDS SOMEONE
TO HOLD HER WHEN SHE CRIES
SHE TRIED TO GET AWAY
BUT HER FAMILY TOLD HER TO STAY
SHE NEEDS SOMEONE
TO HOLD HER WHEN SHE CRIES
WELL THE NEWS IT CAME TODAY
HER HUSBAND KILLED HER YESTERDAY
AND I NEED SOMEONE TO HOLD ME WHILE I CRY
