ASAHI HAIKUIST NETWORK/ David McMurray

 FROM THE NOTEBOOK

1. Counting each tree, while he followed tracks in Romania, Vasile Moldovan soon realized how a whole forest had been cut down.




forest of fir --
a Christmas tree
in each home



Pădure de brad-

în fiecare casă

un pom de Crăciun

* * *
after the holiday
reindeer footprints
through fresh snow

După sărbători

prin zăpada proaspătă

urmele de ren

Traducerea autorului, Vasile Moldovan

2. Reka Nyitrai wrote this one-liner about something good to eat for a pig in the forests of Bucharest, Romania: 

 into a wild boar’s dream thud of an acorn.

în visul unui mistreţ bufnitura unei ghinzi ( tr. VasileMoldovan)

Ribbons Winter 2018 by Tanka Society Of America

alluviums

embrace the banks
of the river –
don’t promise me the ocean
take me to a dew drop
