MINAVI SAYS :
WHEN I WRITE I AM NOT LONELY ANYMORE...
I WRITE BECAUSE I MAKE THE  BITTERNESS OF THE WORLD DETOXIFIED .FOR ME WRITING IS ESCAPING THE NIGHTMARES OF LONELINESS AND REACHING A SECURE PLACE,JOINING A PERSON WHO DOES NOT KNOW ME BUT UNDERSTANDS ME,BELIEVES ME AND ACCEPTS MY MESSAGE.THE ONE WHO IS WITH ME AND ON MY SIDE.I FEEL HE/SHE NEEDS ME AS I NEED HIM/HER.I ALSO TICKLE THEM ON THEIR SLEEPING CONSCIOUSNESS.
from DONYAYE SOKHAN MONTHLY,#17,P.16,FARVARDIN 1367/1988.Tr;F.S.

می نوشد آفتاب

از تن تشنه ی شن 

آشفته می شود

نگاه برگ 

بر شاخه ها 

مهمیز رود 

می زند زخمی 

می درد با د 

حجاب غبارین را 

پرواز گرده 

فاش می شود 

بر آشیان سبز 

می لمد خورشید 

می رود 

رگان نخلستان 

در تن تشنه ی شن 

فرامرز سلیمانی :آواز های ایرانی 

به نگار،تهران ۱۳۶۸/1989

The sun drinks

from thirsty body of the sand 

the gaze of leaves 

goes on tumult  

on branches
the spur of river
brings a wound
the wind
rips
 the dusty veil
flight of pollen
becomes clear
on the green nest
lies down the sun
the veins of palm grove
goes to
thirsty body of the sand
