no​ ​solution

for​ ​the​ ​ice​ ​bridge

between​ ​us -

a​ ​plow​ ​blade ​​is​ ​cutting

the​ ​arteries​ ​of​ ​the​ ​city 

nici o soluție

pentru podul de gheață

dintre noi -

lama plugului taie

arterele târgului

the sun          

has left no blade

of grass –

my fresh wounds

lying on a stone

soarele 

nu mi-a lăsat

nici un fir de iarbă -

rănile mele crude

întinse pe o piatră

two boats

drifting at sea

forever bonded -

I anchor for good

in your ghost-port

două bărci

legate împreună

duse de valuri -

ancorez definitiv

în portul tău imaginar

Comments:

Your childhood home now stands empty as it grows old and weak. Yet swallows come and make their nests inside the cracks of the walls, almost as if they are trying to repair them and prepare for new life. Swallows are a sign of spring, adding warmth to a work that is already full of the author’s love of their childhood home. Even though the photo of a dilapidated, abandoned building seems bleak, paring it with a warm, springtime haiku adds color to the overall piece.
(Kazuko Nishimura)
