POEMS BY NIHAD NIHO MESIC

DZEMO, PULA,AUTOBUS I PRIJATELJI

. Prije polaska na put sanjao sam
rahmetli oca Džemu kako mi
usred noćnog košmara
govori " Ne uzbuđuj se. Biće dobro!"

Iako sam podobro grohnuo
otkad nisam uživo
bio u "Moru na dlanu"
i posljednje jeadanestsatne vožnje autobusom
Tuzla - Pula s aller-retour kartom
izdržalo se, vidjelo se,
pa i zagrlilo s prijateljicama i prijateljima,
družilo i putovalo.

Biće opet, hvala na javljanju tata!

ZAHVALAN!

Na cvijeću
od trnja izniklom
neumorno
pčele rade
na mezarima
roditelja mojih.
Zahvalan!

UMJESTO PUTOPISA

Uživati u rajskim izvorima Crnog Drima
dok momak koji se posve slučajno
zove Naum, vesla.
Pjevati Lihnidu i Biljanu
na kuli iznad jezera Ohridskog

. Napraviti selfie sa spomenikom u Skopju
iznad Vardara.
Gledati se radosno sa Xhevki, Dejanom i Marijom
poslije izvjesnog broja godina.
Ne samo zbog lokuma
i baklave što mi je dadoše.

Putarinu veselo plaćati
po jedan euro svako malo
u društvu dobrom.
Divna li je Makedonija!
