Father's heart
By the Iraqi poet Abdul Karieem Al-Amiry
After a lifetime,
I knew why my father was waiting for me at the door.
The more you delay.
I knew that the father's heart remained tight
With his children's steps.
And I also knew why my tears were shedding
Whenever they are gone.
Sixty years later, I say:
I miss you dad!
