A Syrian Spinster Bird Flew From The War Zone And Landed At The Old Grandpa's Vineyard! Poem by nimal dunuhinga

A Syrian spinster bird flew from the War Zone and landed at the old Grandpa's Vineyard!

Boss! Leave the cage door latched?
As war planes fly in the gloomy sky.
I'll be safe with you and let me stay here
forever!
You said once that you have been to Latakia?
I'll sing you some meaningful Arabic songs of Asala Nasry's
and you can play that broken-stringed lute,
also I could recite you few poems
from Khayyam's Rubayyat!
Definitely your Vineyard be fruitful every vintage!


to the poetess Suzie Suheir Gharib with gratitude!
