Publicate în Haiku Journal Under the Basho


captive
in the dew grain -
the song of a cricket


morning yoga
even my little turtles
stretch their necks

lockdown
more space
for spring


to leave
something behind
a snail's trail

Danube Delta –
in the just bloomed waterlily
a setting moon

(Romanian)
Delta Dunării –
în nufărul abia deschis
apune luna

the way home …
we stop in the wheat field
for the rainbow

(Romanian)
drumul spre casă …
oprim în lanul de grâu
pentru curcubeu

KO, Haiku Magazine in English, Vol.34 No 10 SPRING-SUMMER 2020




Sweet sleep in the grass…
tough scent of the Earth
young and wet green

Lovely spring
beneath the blooming linden
kids on a seesaw

     Luciana  VLADIMIR



After the tempest
from a shore to another
double rainbow



       Vasile MOLDOVAN



Monday morning –
windows of the block house
 are full of primulas

Grandma kissing
nephew´s drawing –
the first crocus

On the road
to the grandparents´ village –
 a flowered chicory

Only a whisper –
the red poppy remains
without petals

cold wind –
the old man wears
another coat

a sparrow
on the willow branch –
month decreasing

shadow of the fisherman
around the moon –
rocking the boat

endless summer –
saxophone sound
on water waves

calligraphy –
swallow’s flight
on the summer sky

THF Monthly Kukai — August 2020

theme: social justice


Honorable Mentions

in the classroom –
sharing the globe
with a refugee
– Dan Iulian
I admire the economy of this poem. There is no sense of stretch between the various ways in which "sharing the globe" can be understood. That is to say, beyond the immediate context of the classroom, all the aspects of sharing our world: tangibly in terms of physical resources, and less obviously through our evolution and ancestry, the migration of languages and ideas––in total what we might term our common humanity.
Remarks are by Dee Evetts, THF Monthly Kukai Commentator. He is an internationally known haiku poet and author of "The Conscious Eye" series on contemporary themes in Frogpond in the late 1990s and early 2000s.
