A Flower


Poem : Hana Al-Qadhi

Translation : Freeyad Ibrahim


I ..you
And you..you
The narcissus blossoms not but in your blood

***
O, for your harshness

Even the thrones give birth to a flower
Has the time not come for your ice
to melt with passion in the warmth of familiarity?

***
Be like the flower
be satisfied with nothing but the sunlight and the freshness of
the river.
Let your fragrance be unlike any other fragrances

***
Inside a garden he sat down absent-mindedly, sulky and sullen

They asked him..he said

I lost a flower
