    This study was conducted to analyze conceptual mappings in two Akhavan Sales’s poems, based on cognitive poetic approach according to the theoretical framework of Freeman (2000), Fauconnier (2002) and turner (2002). In the cognitive poetic approach, analysis of literary works is possible by cognitive linguistic methods. Some of these strategies which make possible the analysis of total work’s structure and type of languages units arrangement  are conceptual, relational or system mappings. In the cognitive poetic approach, literary work’s context has fundamental role in making signification and the analysis are based on three component: text, author and reader. In this time, we read two poems of Akhavan Sales based on this theory. The question of this study is how interpretative levels of Akhavan poetry in the framework of cognitive poetic approach explain different aspects of his thought structurally and conceptually speaking? Investigation of two coherent poems of Akhavan Sales showed that which factors cause to viability of poetry and its strength, and how the poetry structure can take part of author’s thought world construction. The results of style investigation of Akhavan with cognitive poetic view showed that the presence of relation between structure and concept, and also concrete conceptual entire in the frame of mental pattern in poetry can be considered as viability factors of his works.
