Alan Whitehorn: Armenian Poetry Project

One by one the Armenian poets,
scattered in the diaspora,
come to the website.
It is quite a revelation to me.

Several nights a week I sample from the menu
I taste the flavours of Armenia.
I hear the sounds of family and friendship.
I experience the profound feelings of loss and love,
and the quest to read more from the menu....
for so much is still to come….
