    THE MUSIC OF FAIRY LAND 
         AND OTHER POEMS



    IN LOVE
    The sound of my fervant soul
    the thumb of this impassioned heart
    the cheeks as red as Adam and Eve's apple
    My hair blown in the madness of wind,
    tousled.
    In one hand, a bouquet
    of white flowers;
    in the other, a bottle of champagne.
    I am officially in love.
    I say it loud, to you, to the stars.
    The landscape covered in lush, green dress
    The splendour of daisies and lilacs.
    the aroma of roses: Red and white;
    and world looks such a safe place;
    And I shout to the mountains, to the sky.
    I am officially in love.
    I bury my past in the cemetry,
    put a wreath and leave in hurry.
    I give such a wide smile
    never to come back for quite a while.
    I say bye;
    and then say it to the doors,
    say it to the walls.
    I am officially in love.
    On the harbour, a yacht.
    In the sky a thousand sea gulls
    escort us to our paradise.
    we take out all the clocks,
    useless stuff.
    We throw them into the sea.
    Our laughter echoes in the air;
    and we tango in our mingled passion;
    carried away with the depth of our emotion;
    the communication
    the friendship;
    as images of our blissful future unfurl ;
    In our half-drunken eyes;
    and we whisper;
    ear to ear;
    mouth to mouth;
    we are offically in love...



    That's enough...I am leaving!
    These city lights,
    flickering on and off,
    in a noisy night;
    dont catch my interest,
    not anymore.
    The angry taxi driver
    tooting its horn
    stretching his head through the car window
    looking forlorn;
    I take him for granted.
    So dull and typical,
    I yawn.
    The policeman blowing his whistles
    in power to control
    the mini chaos,
    OMG, with such a fuss!
    created by know-alls,
    I turn my head;
    whistle and pass.
    A bus full of tired faces
    crammed
    to find little peace
    in front of TV
    on the sofa
    like a coach potatoe
    Oh no! No one really need this
    I am packing up in tears
    I am leaving this
    piling up all my fears
    leave them discarded
    I am leaving light
    in search of new places, new sights...



    The music of fairy land...
    Sometimes I hear it from the distant
    the sweet melody
    the violin and drum
    and it enchants me
    like I am walking in a solar path
    how familiar, how forgotten
    the memories
    and I want to stand up
    and hold my long skirt
    and walts away my life
    to the old, same melody
    touch it as if its real
    knowing that its only a fairy tale
    Sometimes I try to identify
    to analyse and drag it out
    the source of this hidden joy
    among the thick dark hues of my life
    underneath these mournful eyes of mine
    there is a fairyland
    the land of love and romance
    and ı can see the dancing women
    all in long white dress
    to a non ending music of waltz
    like a miracle
    and I get drunk in the rupture of the melodies
    and how funny it looks
    the tiny portion of joy
    within a huge, cruel world...
