alim abla Poems

Why do I love you so much?
It’s not just your eyes, the tranquil lake of heaven,
Nor your eyebrows, the elegant stroke of Vinci,
Nor your mouth, Michelangelo’s masterpiece.
...

With the warmest shed of your instant blush,
You enlightened my dead humble heart;
...

I do not want to hold you by my side,
You are free, like a bird.
Let yourself fly,
fly as far as you can,
...

We were young when we started this long journey,
Now our grandchildren are big enough to ride a horse.
