on thin ice / na cienkim lodzie

on thin ice
one raven is having fun
one is a viewer

薄氷に 戯る鴉 見る鴉

na cienkim lodzie jeden kruk się zabawia drugi jest widzem

THE ZEN SPACE Autumn 2024 Showcasexx

autumn night
brooms of goldenrod
furious in the wind

angry lovers
but listen . . . the spider begins
to spin its web

fading away
bottle green of the grass
autumn fog

saying goodbye
threads of Indian summer
join our hands

farm road
a peasant takes off his hat
by a tree shrine

bone-chilling wind
a bit more cayenne pepper
in the stew

THE ZEN SPACE Autumn 2024 Showcase
and haiga When I'm gone

mountain shed / górski szałas

mountain shed
through the leaky roof
half a moon 

górski szałas
przez dziurawy dach
pół księżyca

Many thanks to Theresa A. Cancro, THF Volunteer Appreciation Chair Member, and The Haiku Foundation Board of Directors for the brilliant idea of recognizing the contributions of volunteers to the Haiku Foundation. It is a great honor to be featured in the anthology for the third time. I thank the editors for their great effort in preparing this and previous editions.

Summer nightfall / letni zmierzch

Summer nightfall
disputes in the hedges
quieten down

letni zmierzch
ucichają dysputy
w żywopłotach
