Albert Kapikian: Love Poem

They took her... 
I heard with horrified anguish that they had
branded her sunny forehead and cheeks... 

Vahan Totovents

i love                           you

              i am 


                                    fall-



                                                     ing

from these hills

                             search-

                                                     ing




                meadows

                                    for your 


                                                     hand







This poem has appeared in ARARAT, Summer 1986
