Crow
-------
A crow cawed, inviting visitors
While I was translating my country in my dream
When I got up
A pigeon was sitting sleeping
On the window of the flat on the other side
Not saying anything
O visitor, go back
Don’t stay in my dreams
Without a visa
Coconut trees
------------------
Date palms asked
Why are you staring?
We are the coconut trees
After you translated us.
