From a Polish poet: "Dear Majid, Love your poem 'Conquering the Garden'. Politicians should listen to poets. Warmest wishes to my favorite poet..."
Ode To a Persian Poet
to Majid Naficy
In the twilight
you hail
from the wilderness
infusing my silence
with words made of rain
cloud
sun
moon
and stars
your Persian words
for death
sorrow
love and
memory
will resound long after
all other sounds have been stilled
