Not enough rocks around
To stone the whole bunch of us
Each one of us one by one –
We gather around on the same rock
All of us in one place and we wait
For that one gargantuan meteor
– That never comes
……………………. Zahrad

Celestial Snicker
There’s a naughty star
Anchored up in heaven –
Over three million years now
It’s been looking at earth
And laughing its head off
……………………. Zahrad

Wonderful poet. A connection between the rich and old Armenian tradition and the rest of the world.
