تمام وصف من از عالم وجود یک واژه است: عشق
اگر تمام جهان را می‌شد در یک واژه خلاصه کرد، شاید آن واژه عشق بود
در این هفتمین مجموعه، فخری طالبی عشق را نه فقط به عنوان احساسی میان دو انسان، بلکه همچون زبانی برای فهمیدن جهان می‌بیند؛ زبانی که سال‌ها آموخته، در خلوت با آن سخن گفته، با آن انتظار کشیده، رنج برده و شادی کرده، و سرانجام دریافته است که بسیاری از رازهای هستی را می‌توان با همین یک واژه بازگو کرد
در شعرهای او، زندگی گاه به صفحه‌ی شطرنجی می‌ماند که هیچ‌کس از حرکت بعدی آن خبر ندارد، گاه چون پرِ کاهی‌ست که نسیمی آن را با خود می‌برد، و گاه همچون باغی‌ست پر از گل، نور، عطر و صبح
در میان این همه بی‌ثباتی، عشق تنها چیزی‌ست که شاعر آگاهانه انتخاب می‌کند
او از چهره‌هایی می‌گوید که پشت نقاب پنهان می‌شوند، از دل‌هایی که رازهایشان را آشکار نمی‌کنند، از دوری و انتظار، از آمدن و نیامدن، از شادی‌هایی که ناگهان از راه می‌رسند و اندوه‌هایی که بی‌دعوت در دل می‌نشینند
اما حتی در برابر ناپایداری زندگی، او از عشق دست نمی‌کشد
شاید برای همین است که در این دفتر، عشق بیش از آنکه پاسخِ یک پرسش باشد، شیوه‌ای برای زیستن است

نوعی نگاه کردن
نوعی بخشیدن
نوعی صبور ماندن

و شاید مهم‌تر از همه، انتخاب کردنِ زیبایی، حتی در جهانی که همیشه زیبا نیست
در پایان، شاعر همه‌ی وصف خود از عالم وجود را در یک واژه جمع می‌کند: عشق
و چه چیز دیگری می‌تواند باقی بماند، وقتی گل‌ها می‌گذرند، فصل‌ها عوض می‌شوند، آدم‌ها دور می‌شوند و زمان ما را با خود می‌برد؟
شاید همین عشق است که هر روز دوباره جهان را برای ما می‌گشاید
در عطر یک گل، در نور یک صبح، در نگاه یک دوست، در سکوت یک دل، و در تصمیمی ساده و شجاعانه
شاید، با وجود همه‌چیز، باز هم باید عشق را انتخاب کنیم
All That I Can Say of the World of Being Is Contained in a Single Word: Love
If the whole world could be summed up in a single word, perhaps that word would be love.
In this seventh collection of her poems, Fakhri Talebi sees love not merely as a feeling between two people, but as a language for understanding the world itself — a language she has spent years learning, spoken to in solitude, waited for, suffered through, celebrated, and ultimately come to believe holds many of existence's secrets within it.
In her poems, life sometimes resembles a chessboard whose next move no one can predict; sometimes it is like a piece of straw carried off by the wind; and sometimes it is a garden full of flowers, light, fragrance, and morning. Amid all this instability, love is the one thing the poet consciously, deliberately chooses.
She speaks of faces hidden behind masks, of hearts that won't reveal their secrets, of distance and waiting, of arrivals and non-arrivals, of joys that suddenly appear and sorrows that settle in the heart uninvited. Yet even in the face of life's impermanence, she does not let go of love.
Perhaps that is why, in this collection, love is less an answer to a question than a way of living: a way of seeing, a way of forgiving, a way of remaining patient — and perhaps most of all, a way of choosing beauty, even in a world that isn't always beautiful.
In the end, the poet gathers her entire description of existence into a single word: love. And what else could remain, when flowers fade, seasons change, people grow distant, and time carries us all away with it? 
Perhaps it is love, precisely, that opens the world anew for us each day — in the scent of a flower, the light of a morning, the look of a friend, the silence of a heart, and in one simple, courageous decision: 
that perhaps, in spite of everything, we must still choose love.
