Originally, a taqche is a small recess or shelf in a wall, often used to hold lamps or decorative items. In poetry, it evokes a sense of intimacy and personal space, a quiet corner where thoughts and memories reside.

Poets often use taqche to symbolize a hidden or cherished part of the soul. It can represent a sanctuary for dreams or a repository of secrets.

Taqche invites us to explore the quiet corners of our inner world, where the most profound treasures often lie.
