Persian Haiku

Persian Haiku      (Segani) 


My wing altered with age.
The wing that is broken. 
My body is the cage.

You cannot find God?
The world is empty of him!
Maybe you are abroad.

I’m covered with dirt.
From this dirt, I am alert.
Alert makes me hurt.

I’m talking to you.
My eyes are kissing you.
The fishes are watching.

How do you know that?
The tree is not my lover!
Spring will discover.

How childish is love?
When you stole my heart again,
How can I complain?

How sad is my tree?
In the middle of a prison;
Even though it’s free.

Tell me I love you.
Is that so complicated?
My colors are faded.
