IRANIAN WOMAN



Anita Nezami

The beautiful mystique of Arabian women introduced herself to me in Morocco.  Each country's ways produced a particular and distinct quality that said this woman belonged to this tribe, this group, this family. It was remarkable how the music, and the vocalist unwrapped the stories of the poetry composed within the women. With skill they sung to my heart about the spirit of women, and lovers in one of the most beautiful of languages in the world: Arabic or Farsi. Numerous singers sang with such precise depth about the mysteries of female bliss, loneliness  pain, intrigue, love, want, and about the desires within men for the women they carried within their hearts from one lofty place to another. 

Fairouz, Om Kalthoum. These are the singers, and others in me since my early years caressing what needs to praise, probe, revere, and understand the women I love and like. - Gregory E. Woods  3.8.13
