En un eclair - La lettre de haiku, Nr. 61

 

Fôret de sapins… 

allongée 
sur un lit de pommes de pin – 
les étoiles chuchotent 

Coronavirus – 
laissé tout seul à la maison 
l'arbre de Noël 

accident de voiture – 
un petit ours en peluche 
sous un sapin 

Lavana Kray

le vent souffle 
légèrement – 
la forêt de sapin murmure 

le sapin sec 
allumé par une foudre – 
flammes vers le ciel 

ourson 
perchée dans un sapin – 
les rires des enfants

On the balcony

through the steam of tea

I look at the snow

Vasile Moldovan

First snowfall--

my thoughts running

among the flakes

Vasile Moldovan

*

red wine--

painting a sunset

or a sunrise

Ana Drobot

*

engaged at a late age--

opening

a red wine bottle

Christmas day – 

the old pain 

left in a candle 


through the steamy window 

the lights of the fir tree –

Christmas night 


Carmen Duvalma


rye bread 

with liver spread... 

rainy Christmas 


new year's mist 

the resolutions 

I won't keep
