end of chemo
along with the full moon
my shiny head

a hot date
the gentle creaking
of moored boats

Limelight / haibun


Limelight

The mime enters stage left, only his face and hands loom out of the darkness. He embraces an imaginary woman, covers her face with kisses and caresses her skin. He doesn’t pretend that she exists, he just forgets that she is not there. When the curtain comes down, the spotlight focuses on the black-clad figure smelling a rose.
We walk back home holding hands.

in his arms
the scent of jasmine
till morning

Failed Haiku

with you at Starbucks
tasting pumpkin spice latte 
from the same cup

z tobą w Starbucks
próbując dyniowe latte
z tego samego kubka

granny's chair
on the knitting needles
a half-done sock

krzesło babci
na drutach do dziergania
pół skarpetki
Revised: 9th Yamadera Basho Memorial Museum English Haiku Contest Selected Haiku Submissions Collection (2017)

thunderstorm
granny makes signs of a cross
above me

burza
babcia robi znaki krzyża
nade mną

spring cleaning
our wedding portrait
on a scrap heap

wiosenne porządki
nasz ślubny portret
na kupie złomu

family album
on the pregnant woman's hand
two wedding rings
revised IRIS INTERNATIONAL HAIKU MAGAZINE 2015

album rodzinny
na palcu ciężarnej
dwie obrączki
