a new nest
beside the airport—
swallow wings

un cuib nou lângă aeropor—
aripi de rândunică

returning home—
a little bit of Greece
flavours my shirt

drumul spre casă—
pe tricoul meu un pic
din aromele Greciei

black sky—

it a prick

cer negru—
secera lunii
îl înţeapă

după furtună -

botez epava bărcii

cu numele meu

Tanka

refugees
camping on the outskirts
of the village—
the sound of a violin
moaning at intervals

refugiaţi
amplasaţi la marginea
satului—
se aude o vioară
din când în când

Lavana Kray
Romania

we met
on the crosswalk...
a kind of
memory about you
from my childhood

ne-am cunoscut
pe trecerea de pietoni…
un fel de
amintire despre tine
din copilărie

Le Prix Jocelyne-Villeneuve Haiku Canada mai 2016

2 e Mention honorable ex æquo –
choix de J. Belleau

souvenirs d’enfance –
effaçant la ville natale
premiers flocons de neige

Ana Drobot
Roumanie

J. B. : Le visible devient invisible. L’espace plein antérieur fait place au vide, à l’espace blanc actuel. Des « flocons de neige » oblitèrent une ville et, peut- être, un pan de vie. Le long tiret (cadratin) semble marquer la coupure. Je lis dans ce haïku une intériorité profonde exprimée avec délicatesse.


3e Prix
fleurs de cerisier
l’orphelin fredonne
la vie en rose

Cesar Ciobica
Roumanie


B. N. :
Je ressens un certain paradoxe, les trois aspects évoqués : le kigo de L1, le sujet de L2 et l’objet de L3 sont des clichés qui transcendent les cultures japonaises et occidentales, on est dans le kitch le plus total et en même temps la tendresse qui est évoquée me paraît très réelle, sincère.

J. B. :
Ce haïku résonne très fort en moi : qu’un orphelin (quel âge a cet enfant aujourd’hui ?) fredonne une chanson d’Édith Piaf, popularisée il y a plus d’un demi-siècle, me donne à penser qu’il s’agit pour lui d’un souvenir sonore indélébile – et son cœur bat peut-être un peu plus fort.

The Bamboo Hut - Spring 2016, Journal of English Language Tanshi

Lavana Kray ne-a trimis:
1

for the first time
on the seashore...
this photo got
several wrinkles
too

2
succesfull chemo...
dead leaves
playing
with her hair
in the dark ginnel

3
black oil slick
washed up on the beach-
tourists
taking selfies
with the grounded fish

4
wind chugging...
on a clot 
of dead leaves,
a refugee woman
breastfeeding her baby

5
my life
as the colorless fluid
of sky ...
a wounded crane looks
at the migrating flock

Le gong de minuit

fait tomber les ailes de l'horloge

une après l'autre...

je tiens à t'écrire quelques lignes

mais c'est l'encre qui tremble

Des réfugiés

qui passent leurs jours de grissaille

en plein air...

quelqu'un joue de la flûte

jusqu'à l'aube
