POEMS
IMMIGRANT BIRD
There was an immigrant bird
Who is all alone
And he had a little heart.
He wants to go to distant places
He had decided that he must go
Nobody didnt make any objection
Everybody wasn't interested to go.
Except for one immigrant bird
who was strange hearted,
approached and begged him
with love in her eyes
dont go, nobody will ever hurt you
let's be together.
he didnt listened to her
and away he laughed
He had decided and
he would never return from this
in any case I fall in love with loneliness, he said
he looked down on her and then flew alone and all alone.
The following morning
somebody found him
at city garbage
his wings broken
with his picked up little heart
He had fallen in love with loneliness
he could never come back
he was still alone and all alone...
Alpaslan Kuzucuoglu
translated by Rosario Amor
A grey and cloudy sky
wind blowing strong
In loneliness, I m walking along the beach
so as not to terrify the fishes
I m walking with consciousness
That every steps I make
I get closer to death.
At this moment
Some things flash in my mind
Some sayings come:
That wherever I get closer,
The end is moving afar, full of disappointments
Then I realized!
there is no closeness
other than God
My gaze is slipping to sea quietly
Waves in rows
are like soldiers, riveted with lead
I feel the greatness of the power of God
Spilling from my lips :
impossible to be told.
what is left from the wavesonly white foams
