An example of his poems:-
Goodbye, O the smile
on the hungry lips and
Poor confused ones
Goodbye, O the shadow
That is the head of the summer
The oppressed and the victims
Goodbye, O the umbrella of happiness
The head of the winter forty
The poor and homeless
Goodbye, O the backbone of the
The refuge of the weak
Sleep for yourself, close your eyes, goodbye
You are very tired of this life
Let your heart rest for a little [1]
