Sound Of Water Poem by Nassy Fesharaki

Sound of water

In times when we think:
"I am a poet! "
-we need a mirror.

My mirror:
The sound of water's footstep

All alone
-not lonely
I am lost
-in the mass of words
-in the beauty of poetry
-musical…nostalgic
-vast as wide as
-the seas
-the oceans
-the skies
-and the deserts
-written by an extraordinary poet
-(Sohrab Sepehri)
-and recited by an exceptional voice
-(Khosrow Shakibayee)
-and I am drunk
-in softness and smoothness
-and love
-and humanity
-and find me
-nothing in comparison with…
-with what?
-how can a piece of hay talk of
-the golden mass of wheat straws
-in the horizon of a summer day?
-who am I?
-what?
-a poet?
…
No!
Never!
