Poem

I wish that I was a mountain
A lofty and elegant one
With my roots deep in the earth
A crown of cloud bestowed on my dome


I wish that I was the Alps, with creased peaks
Arm in arms with all the other mountains
Built a tower of epic legacy
of a knight who saved the world once
in his shiny armor on a horse

I wish that I was a mountain
A mountain painted lavender
concealed my nudity with Persian patterns
bruised chest Tulips
and wildflowers of a dry summer 

I wish that I was a mountain 
My arms open as wide as my mind 
My grass hoppers and butterflies
Weren’t ashamed to make love
On the rooftop of the central mosque

I wish that I was a mountain
Springs of clear water
Streamed through my skin
Captive aquarium fish
Grew wings to jump into my border less creeks

I wish that I was a mountain
But my heart wasn’t out of stone
I wish I always had room
Inside my rocky caves
For the weary black sparrows

I wish that I was a mountain
So the homeless people could always sell used books
In the obscure narrow paths of my flesh
Where my tired pilgrims 
tied strings of their ancient dreams
To the branches of the Acacia
planted in the courtyard of my heart 


I wish that I was a mountain
Every morning at sunrise
Northern winds sang me stories of the exotic towns
While storks holding new born babies
Gossiped about the ominous ugly crows

I wish that I was a mountain
But my heart wasn’t made out of stone
That not even one single person on the earth ever thought
Falling in love was wrong
That joyous songs, twirled in our sky
That every little girl in our street
Had puffy skirts
In scarlet, orange and emerald

I wish I was a mountain
I really want to be a mountain
