Haiku
Molk
pismo molčeče
nikóli dostavljeno
nikóli oddano
Silence
still unsaid unsent
silent letters to you
never delivered
Schweigen
Schweigende Briefe
Niemals aufgegebene
Nie gelieferte
Written and translated by Dagmar Travner
In English
Haiku: Leaving
train’s steady flow
vanishing landscapes, leaving
moving to white fields
Haiku: Easter Monday
light snow falling
Fools’ day – meaningful Easter
a new begin
Empty Dreams
sleepily thinking of you
reaching out my hand towards
the empty place by my side
knowing your thoughts
are not longer with me
Apart
moon
colourless
so far, so near
lovers
apart
Breeze
gentle zephyr
fugacious kiss
touching lips
entangled hands
playful caresses
deep ardour
your embrace
surrounding me
Tanka: Night Walk
dreaming – night walk through
landscapes of otherness
your hand in mine
come, listen to heartbeats
feel my tune, see my thoughts
Tanka is a form of Japanese poetry, similar to Haiku, but older and consisting of max. 5-7-5-7-7 Syllables.
Traces of a Moment
So strange to find
this special ink in my notebook
reading the traces of your fountain pen
written down by my own hand.
Do you remember
this blink of a moment…
German version: Anmerkung eines Augenblicks
Haiku: After Sunset
starry summer night
don’t you hear my song anymore
sad melancholy
Haiku: Lush Roses
lush roses blooming
an intense scent of love
sweet sweat in the air
Haiku: Dark Heart
dark curtains, hot lips
wandering hands, bodies touch
soul fusion, heart break
Haiku: False Dreams
false cricket chirping
touching skins, blurred memories
forsaken bodies
Haiku: Breeze of Sorrows
burning summer breeze
cats lazily chewing birds
merciless sorrows
Tanka: Enticing Melodies
green mead, frail blooming
birds’ enticing melodies
when you grasped my hand
dragging me into your dreams
swift overwhelming journey
Haiku: Night’s Clarity
distant tune creeping
into flesh, night’s clarity
throbbing heartbeat hurts
