From the Book
"God, I Am Here" by Vagif Samadoghlu

5

Telephone numbers are not all alike.
Though there are human voices at the end of all of them.

Human voices are not all alike,
One expresses joy; another, grief.

Griefs are not all alike,
One is hopeful; another, desperate.

Hopes are not all alike,
One is dependent upon God; another, upon man's hands.

Men's hands are not all alike,
One ploughs the ground under; another, perpetrates life.

Human lives are not all alike,
One thrives; another, barely survives.

Human wills are not all alike,
One becomes determined, another shatters into pieces.

Pieces are not all alike,
One is as big as a century, another as small as a day.

Days are not all alike,
One is good, another bad.

Bad days are not all alike,
Sometimes it is you who remains silent,
Sometimes, the telephone.

1965
