His poetry is based on love imagery, full of memories of the bygone days in the motherland. His language is rich with alliteration, rhyme, and visual description. His poetry evokes all 5 senses. He has a special affinity for the environment. Bejan has traveled extensively in the 4 continents. For him, poetry is the capture of transient moments in eternal words. It is functional in three areas: teaching, pleasure, and history. Quoting Hafiz, poetry is a "recording in the World's chronicle." In describing a successful poet, Nima Yushij notes, "the new comers follow you from afar in waves."
