Mircea Moldovan was insatiable—feeling hungry and thirsty all day long for anything made from rice in Jibou, Romania.

HAIKU DIALOGUE – Ad Astra – the planets - December 1

 

Venus
the sweet sound
of her name

Florin C. Ciobica
Romania

Venus was among the popular planets for this prompt, understandably so — beauty and love provide so much of our joy in life. Ciobica captures this feeling well; whether the name Venus is sweet or the sound of a lover’s name puts the poet in mind of the beauty of Venus, the poem hints at the mythic wonder of desire, sighing with pleasure at the mere whisper of a name.

Saturn –
on his aged finger
the wedding ring

Mirela Brăilean
România

***

Venus and Mars
my birth planets
tussle over me

Mona Iordan
Romania

***

her head
bright as Venus
snowflakes above the hospital

Mircea Moldovan
România

winter wilderness

losing the way

to oneself

pustiu de iarnă –
rătăcind drumul
către sine


virgin snow –
the color
of silence

zăpada virgină –
culoarea

tăcerii

 

Dan Iulian

 

evening guest

in the squirrel’s hollow

a moonbeam


oaspete de seară
în scorbura veveriței
o rază de lună

Vasile Moldovan

 

uncrushed

the moon gives taste

to the new wine


nestrivită
luna dă gust

noului vin

 

Eduard Ţară

 

gentle sun –

a burgundy leaf settles

on mother’s grave


soare blând –
o frunză bordo se aşeaz
ă
pe mormântul mamei

calm night –
snow flakes slowly come down
over yesterday’s

noapte calmă –
câţiva fulgi coboară rar

peste cei de ieri

 

Maria Tirenescu

 

golden lace dress –

the chestnut tree shakes

its last leaves


rochia de dantelă galbenă –
castanul își scutură

ultimele frunze

Steliana Voicu tidied up her hometown of Ploiesti, Romania

sweeping red leaves--
how gently the moon grows
over the village

Vasile Moldovan keenly perceived what migrants had to say in Bucharest, Romania.

fog on the lake--
the voices of the geese
so clear
