"Ararat Teardrops"
excerpt from the book: Warrior Poet Verses by Brenda Terzian
copyright@2005 Brenda Terzian
p. 42 Ararat Teardrops
From the Ararat Mount
Come teardrops so many
Like a watering fount
More than seen of any
For Armenia her child
Has been taken away
The family defiled
Churches left to decay
Ararat has no smile
With such events so cruel
Her children in exile
What a barbarous rule
To end wishes and sighs
For their return she cries
