BORNA TRILOGY - 2

...SO I WAS LEFT LONELY AND RETURNED TO FIND A REFUGE IN THE HOUSE OF POETRY.
FOR THIS HAS BEEN MY HABITAT AT THE TIME OF HARDSHIP.
THEN " THE GUEST OF OUR GOOD EARTH " WAS PENNED IN SOLITUDE OF SILENCE,OF THAT BOOK THE POEM 'FOURTIETH '( CHELLEH GUI )APPEARS ON THIS PAGE.

* FORTIETH *

FATHER IS OLD SOUL AND THE YOUTHFUL IS YOU
ALL MUSCLES AND MASCULINE IS YOU
- FERDOSI

1.TONIGHT I ONLY COUNT METEORS WITH YOU
FOLLOWING THE COUNT OF
FORTY RESTLESS NIGHTS
WITHOUT AN END.

2.AND WITH YOU I GAZE AT
THE MOON AND CONSTELLATIONS
WHO ARE PLAYING ANXIOUSLY AGAIN
AND THE SUN SILENTLY
SITTING IDLE
IN FORTIETH.

3. TONIGHT I OBSERVE
QUIET BLUE STARS
IN THE RED NEBULAR OF YOUTH
TONIGHT I GO AROUND
THE WORLD IN SOLITUDE
WITH YOU I AM TAHAMTAN
I AM ROSTAM AND FARAMARZ
WITH YOU.

NO! THIS TORN CALENDAR
WON'T DARE TO PAGE
IN THE WIND.
AND WE REMAIN GUESTS OF
OUR GOOD EARTH.
