My weblog is all about me and my dreams, basically it is my visual dream diary
The Look by Maryam Yahiaoui-Doktor (31/7/1992)
He told her one night, he was leaving her.
He said his goodbye and picked up his lot.
As he stepped out of the door she looked at him.
She asked him for a kiss with the look in her eyes.
He looked back, but missed her look.
He walked on getting further from her.
She asked him to kiss her with the look in her eyes.
He still walked on further…
She asked him to kiss her with the look in her eyes.
She asked him to kiss her with the look in her eyes
The Brick Sentries by Maryam Yahiaoui-Doktor (3/4/1995)
The great waves came crashing in, on the castle walls.
With the years of wear and tear, water seeped through from the sea
The repaired and re-repaired foundations shook
She, who lived and ruled there alone, worried
Long ago she’d ordered the thick walls to be built, but now they were giving
They had shook before, but she had them rebuilt, to experience no more hurt.
She had trusted them, they had worked
This latest storm was sudden, though.
Was it because she had peered over the top of the wall and wondered about the days without them?
The risk of it hadn’t came to her mind then
Oh, what was she to do?
It was best to just live as usual and hope for the best.
The storm picked up over night.
The sea hurled water up far beyond the castle walls.
On its way down, the flood washed away the ruins.
In the morning she woke up to fond the walls gone, with the calmest looking sea around it.
Her mind pointed to the ripples, panicking about pain
But her heart sat coolly in its realm and smiled at her man who wanted walls around his domain.
“No need! She shouted through life’s noises.”
مدتها پیش با دوستی عزیز و شاعر مسلک قرار گذاشتیم که با همکاری هم مجموعه کاری از آثاریکدیگر کار کنیم و به چاپ برسانیم. کار را پیش بردیم اما هنوز فر صت اینکه برای نا شران سختگیر فرستاده شود یافت می نشده است!!!من همچنان امیدوارم و می دانم که روزی این اتفاق خواهد افتاد. اشعار مریم بسیار عاشقانه و احساساتی و زیبا هستند در عین حال از تصویرسازیهای خودم هم راضی هستم که تصمیم گرفتم قضاوت اصلی را ابتدا به شما بسپارم…لطفا با نظرات صادقانه خود ما را یاری کنید
برای خواندن اشعار و نوشته های مریم به وب سایتش سر بزنید: نوشتهای اوتحت نام مایا می باشد

در پستهای بعدی من نمونه هائی از این همکاری را خواهم گذاشت لطفا دنبال کنید
A while ago my dream friend Maryam and I decided to form a collaboration with our *artistic* talents!! she is quite a sentimental poet and I am a humble illustrator. We have made a small book poetry on love and still haven’t had the chance to send it off to the infamously strict publishers around town. I know in my heart of hearts that this project will kick off some day (most probably when we tucked up enough courage to send it off).
To be honest I am quite happy with what we have came up with however it’s best if you could let us know what you think.
For more information on Maryam’s poetry and other writings please go to the link above and read her stuff under *Maya*.
In my next posts I will be up loading samples of our collaboration please watch this space.
مدتی است که مطلب جدیدی ننوشته ام…دوست دارم بنویسم اما گاهی از کلمات خالی هستم…افکار جوراجور دارم و دائم به یک گفتگو درونی مشغولم اما زمان نوشتن که می رسد ذهنم خشک می شود!!!به وبلاگهای مورد علاقه ام سر می زنم و آنها هم این روزها با تاخیر می نویسند و دوستی به جای هر کلامی یک شعر گذاشته و من هم به دنباله روی از او همین کار را خواهم کرد که گاهی شعر بهترین نوع بیان احساسات است. بخشی از شعری را می نویسم ازاحمد شاملو
قفس
قفس این قفس این قفس
پرنده
در خواب اش از یاد می برد
من اما در خواب می بینمش
که خود
به بیداری
نقشی به کمال ام
…از قفس
It’s been a while since I wrote here…I like to write and be read but some times finding a subject troubles me. There are no words for me to express how I feel.
Just had a quick look at the other blogs I check regularly and found out they are up dating on a slow pace as well.A dear friend of mine has chosen to print a poem instead of writing about her own feelings/thoughts. I decided to do the same however the peom is in Farsi and it is not possible for me to translate it but if you are interested you can check the poet’s official web site with some translations. Sadly the poem above is not to be found on the web site.I have chosen a poem by Mr Ahmad Shamlu one our most famous contemporary poets who passed away in year 2000.
