Bernadet > Bernadet's Quotes

“ما چون دو دريچه ، رو به روي هم
آگاه ز هر بگو مگوي هم
هر روز سلام و پرسش و خنده
هر روز قرار روز آينده
عمر آينه ي بهشت ، اما ... آه
بيش از شب و روز تير و دي كوتاه
اكنون دل من شكسته و خسته ست
زيرا يكي از دريچه ها بسته ست
نه مهر فسون ، نه ماه جادو كرد
نفرين به سفر ، كه هر چه كرد او كرد”
― مهدی اخوان ثالث
