Abstract

Nostalgia is the obsession with beautiful memories in the poet’s conscience, which he longs for and his soul yearns for the beautiful past, which represents the scenario of the poet’s life since childhood, and his inspiration in the stages of his creativity. Nostalgia for the past has a psychological basis, which is called nostalgia or nostalgia (nostalgia for the ideal past). It provides us with happiness, comfort and reassurance.


Each of us often longs for memories we lived in the past or people with whom we marked the path. He remembers them from time to time, as he sees that the past is beautiful with all its events and relationships, and is characterized by simplicity, spontaneity, and credibility.


A person may resort to nostalgia (nostalgia for the past) in order to escape from his harsh and bitter present by immersing himself in his beautiful memories. He feels comfortable and relaxed when thinking about the past and imagining the most beautiful images that provide him with hope, optimism and psychological comfort.


This is what we find in the poet’s beautiful writings through his creative texts.
