Persian Haiku 3

Persian Haiku 3

Persian Haiku 3


Two wings are enough!
To go further than too far,
What about this cage?


God is everywhere.
There are too many crimes here,
Where the hell are you?


My soul is dusty.
My body is too rusty.
Maybe I'm buried.


You heard me crying.
You wanted to heal my wound.
My heart was bleeding.


I am a bandit.
I wanted to steal your heart.
Somebody stole mine.


What is happening?
Lizards were dinosaurs!
Hope for a flower.


Where are we going?
Destination is unknown.
Let’s make a U-turn.




Who is lonelier?
An eagle or a vulture 
When there is no food.


I don't plant flowers.
Flowers don't have devotion.
They leave soon after.


Let me go away.
Like a mountain, majestic. 
The further we are.


I'm reading Winter.
I’m done with summer and fall.
What happened to spring?


We are both crying,
Sad and gloomy, sky and I.
Our eyes are so wet.

Amazing, subtle and shining. Human soul and nature in harmony. It may be true that not mind or heart (intelligence and feelings) lead us, but our habits. The second nature could be our good or well habits. Also as a kind of angels: personal habits.
