COCKROACH

COCKROACH



sits quietly
on a packet of sweets
a cockroach in the fridge

the evening’s smile
seems conspiring with floating shadows
swains rehearse in dark corners
with cigarettes
I simply gobble the scene



--R.K.Singh

poised on the ice lake
a solitary moorhen's
-frozen longing

midwinter cold —

even the sound of the bell

seems frozen

Uzor: "Ricercare" 2/2

blizzard
the moon leaves the trees
behind

light snow days —

through the dark

dawn’s plow

chocolate Yule log

dusted with icing sugar -

snow covered hills

Christmas lights -

cherry blossom

still in bloom.

through this path

no one comes unheard

leaves separately frozen

chilled air penetrate

loosen tension

and my brain relax

yellow code

yellow code –

roofs flying over

the city

Diana Teneva

packy snow
I'll carve diem
into snowmen

full snow moon
the slowness of shadows
caught in branches

Haiga 203

hvidt forneden
mørke foroven
spor i den lyse nat

-

White below
darkness above
in the bright night
tracks

a weather-wound cloud
pulls in the sun -
spring swallowed

a crisp sheet of cloud
slips over the sun -
spring forestalled

a song of daybreak
"birdie, birdie, birdie" -
spring surrendered

no whisper of sleds
nor scraping of shovels
the snow simply rained

cold moon

cold moon

on the swing still swinging

a child’s shoe

hladan mjesec

na ljuljački se još ljulja

dječja cipelica
