Forty third letter / poem to Khodayar on the occassion of his sixth death anniversary
Khodayar, let this song be an echo for your life,
your life, solid as an avalanche
coming from the mountains, to us.
Full of danger / you lived
cut off from your home,
from your people,
in the land of strangers, you were forced
apart. You were put
in danger, again and again.
Let this spring refresh your soul
and take some of the bitterness away.
Let us share this with you.
This wind between the mountains
is strong and clean
and even touches that place-apart,
where your life was cancelled.
I don’t understand this
I am not explaining it well.
The ripples from your words
set all the boats dancing
on the pretty water,
raise the hairs on my neck.
