Hormoz Alipoor
Nov 042005
Hormoz Alipoor is a contemporary Iranian poet. He has published five collections of poetry.
He was one of the avant-garde poets of Iran between 1971- 1981.
This poem is from his collection “”Azure paper” selected and traslated by Pooya Azizi. With the moon talk but, did you
See behind your sad face
Your youth was dead.
Did you see how you forget
The name of the flowers.
With moon talk but, the
Sadness does not leave you.
Did you see you came here to cry.
With the moon talk , now
Turning around your face. the
Death that loves to call you , by
Your first name” Hormooz”.
Poet, in the moon eyes
Did you see fifty spring
Passed by you sadly?

Dear Mira; not very many poets use form of Ghazal in poetry,except few poets that once in a while as a fun they use form of Ghazal. Since 1960,s new form of poetry has become of interest to Iranian poets , which started with a famouse poet NEEMA YOSHIG . mahmag
