echoes in exile. Sheema is not only a talented and well-known Iranian poet but also a passionate human rights activist.Here is her poem called:
God speaks Hebrew
Yesterday,
He sneezed within me,
God and his kissable mouth,
Smiling with a wide-open heart!
God never cheats,
Never rapes,
Never hates
Sings in Hindi,
Persian and Russian,
Latin, Swahili and Sindi!
Can be understood in Semitic languages,
Arabic and Hebrew!
God walks in kimonos,
Sophisticated and elegant
Smells like iris and talks like English
He is a little Chinese village-man,
Rejecting the ism
He reborn the angels,
As they sing the symphony of cotton fields,
A freedom's journey,
An escape from unformed yellow seeds
Crystal hands, crystal stars,
Crystal green gardens,
And my crystal laughter,
Essentializes the whole poem of life.
