The fact that his poems have a deep figurative meaning, while at the same time being expressed in a simple, fluent language, and sometimes a folk, generous narrative style, strongly connects the poet's poetry with his reader. In addition, the ancient forgotten musical melodies in the poet's poetry are revived, giving a new meaning and new grace to his works. Sometimes tragic sounds are heard.
