Yasemin Poem by Nassy Fesharaki

Yasemin



Yasemin

She is Turk of Turkey
-we spoke lovingly
-as do the siblings.

"Name belongs to Iran, "
-she told me with pride.

The same thing I have seen
-among the Africans

-and many others who

-as die marks on the sands.

-the Persian Language
-and loved it…

Named daughter Jasmine
-but Farsi…
