My Heart Oasis

Poetry is more than just mere words. Poetry is a mixture of feelings and thoughts. It is a combination of night and day, happiness and sadness, through poetry, I convey innermost self-ideas putting them into vivid thoughts and vibrant verses that tell stories, express sentiments, and speak of lives of people that formed a great part of my life. By reading this chapbook, you can dive deep into the bottom of my soul and understand how I felt during my writing each single poem. You will enjoy reading poems that were written originally in Arabic by the Egyptian poet Farouk Goweda and translated into English with the help of my collaborators Andy Fogle and Elizabeth Horan. To those all I devote my eternal thanks, unending respect and unalterable love.
