La providence,

celle qui demeure éveillée

quand mon ange gardien dort

providența,

acel ceva rămas treaz

când îngerul păzitor doarme

Maria Tirenescu heard a melodious warble for the first time while she was celebrating an all-but-forgotten Romanian holiday that was revived after the end of her country’s political isolation from Western influence.




Blackbird sings

BEST OF ISSUE (Third Choice)
Najbolji haiku broja (trećeplasirani)

Maria Tirenescu, Romania (Rumunija)

still snowing . . .
it's time to bloom, 
crocus

još sneži ...

vreme je da procvetaš,

šafrane

Tr. S.V.

încă mai ninge…

e timpul să înflorească

brânduşele

Artwork: Robert D. Wilson

This hokku embodies the spirit of Kobayashi Issa. It is activity-biased and objective. Its focus is not the crocus (object) nor the snowfall. Centric is the second line: "it's time to bloom".

The poet, tired of winter, is anxious for spring to arrive. Spring is not an object. It is nonpermanent, always changing, always coming and going, in a continuum of becomingness.

Issa sometimes spoke to lifeforms via hokku, seeing them through a child's eyes.
