I correspond through

I correspond through messaging and email with a
beautiful Irania lady in Tehran. I too am a New Zealander and through her eyes have come to know the true beauty that is Iran. The poetry,the music and the scenery.But the thing that I like most is they still have the values that we used to have here before we threw it all away for more freedom.Yes,they do go a bit far with some of these values. But all in all they still have them.Please don't let the West screw it all up for them.
I have fallen in love with Iran.

Amazing!

Beautiful culture, beautiful history and of course ... beautiful women!

We should all be proud of our heritage, ethnicity and our country. Yes, its government must be changed and the beautiful people there deserve their freedom. But at the same time, let's remember that we can strengthen our presence in the US, which will hopefully later help make some non-bloody changes in our Iran. Let's be together, whether we're jews or muslims. That's the only thing that us 'immigrants' have done wrong - we are not united. Not even close to how the various asian groups or hispanic or non-Iranian jewish groups are. Sorry ... just had to get my thoughts in here.

Again, beautiful pictures!

Like an oak in a fantasy.

The yellow
sand appears
in my mind
with a rumbling
and delicate
look; you call
me near a
sylvan hedge,
and everything
shines like a
taciturn wind.
