Mohammad Shams Langeroodi (born November 17, 1950 in Langerood, Iran) is a contemporary Iranian poet, author, researcher and university lecturer.

I release into you

Without seeing you

And on the seabed I open my eyes

I'm the river

And I'm addicted to be drowned in you

Without feeling your scent

My black roots waken in the dark

'Spring, spring' they shout

I'm the branches of the tree

I'm addicted to your coming

Without being intoxicated with your scent

I count to ten

My fingers swing around the middle of my pencil

And a song borns

which is born of your hands-

I'm a poet

And I'm addicted to write about you

Shams Langeroudi
