Adrian Păunescu (20 July 1943 – 5 November 2010) was a Romanian poet, journalist, and politician. Though criticised for praising dictator Nicolae Ceauşescu, Păunescu was called "Romania's most famous poet" in an Associated Press story, quoted by the New York Times.
Born in Copăceni, Bălţi County, in what is now the Republic of Moldova, Păunescu spent his childhood in Bârca, Dolj County. He did his secondary studies at Carol I High School in Craiova.

Păunescu studied philology at the University of Bucharest and became a writer and journalist. He was an influential public figure for Romanian youth throughout the 1970s and early 1980s. Though he was criticised for writing flattering poems about dictator Nicolae Ceauşescu, Păunescu remained popular in Romania, where he appeared on television several times a week.

As posthumously summarized by newspaper România Liberă, Păunescu "is still viewed as a hero by the man in the street" although "intellectuals continue to question his integrity and the literary value of his work".

Vladimir Tismaneanu called him "the supreme sycophant of the Ceausescu era."

A member of the Union of Communist Youth between 1966 and 1968, and, between 1968 and 1989, of the Romanian Communist Party, Păunescu gained control over a major weekly publication, Flacăra and became the producer and host of the only itinerant folk and pop show in the country, Cenaclul Flacăra, founded in 1973. He was a member of the Romanian Communist Party Central Committee and "court poet" of the dictator Nicolae Ceauşescu.

"GREŞEALA

Fiind o greşeală
Care se repetă,
Pare o iubire."

Așa multe poezii care mi-au plăcut în acest volum. Dar o să las aici una care cred că se potrivește cu starea mea.

Dreptate
Să fii atât de departe
de relele lumii
încât orice veste rea
care vrea să te-atingă
să nu ajungă la tine
decât după ce
devine istorie.

Am chef să mor,
Este probabil că sunt încă viu.”

“Am tot mai puține zile înainte
Și prin toate colțurile casei
Tot mai multe fotografii.” ~ Zile si fotografii

“Am fost singur pe străzile
pe care trecusem cu tine
și m-am simțit rău,
aveam un fel de leșin,
pe acolo unde îmi fusese bine.” ~ Singur, pe-acolo

Dacă ea mi-a creat
această stare de disperare
și de poezie, n-am ce să-i reproșez,
decontul e făcut.

"Visez
acum
să trec împreună cu tine într-un zvon public
si-apoi
într-o legendă
şi să mergem din gură-n gură."

Stilul direct și elegant, idei îndrăznețe, unele chiar interzise, stârnesc un tumult intens în sufletul omului modern...
