I wake to the burning rivers
2 November 2016
Silent breath stretched beyond reason
The flowerbeds expressed autumn
Lurking meanings in the season
March in my Heart defunct solemn
Duet somber exposed treason
Fallen heroes to their anthem
Wind of morrows ushered bees in
The swarm composed ode to her hymn
I wake to the burning rivers
Sound of silence scorching embers
The mourning fleet the strange shivers
The spirits gone mind remembers
See her in quakes Earth delivers
You touch the hair she moves members
Reading of the poem:
The Lonely Chamber – Azam Ali & Loga Ramin Torkian
