The 8th WHA Haiga Contest (10/2003)

 

 

 
Haiku My jem

in a limited season--

the snake gourd

leafing through an old book

nestled in the pages

a faded rose

By the highway

a cart

with one horsepower.

Haiku: Rositsa Yakimova

lavender

under my pillow−

sweet dreams

Haiku: Etsuko Yangibori

Haiku na pustoj obali

valovi tihnu -

u smiraj dana


along the deserted coast

the waves are quieting down -

the end of the day

  a toss of her head

the pigeons

take flight

  Ginkgo' leaves

Falling down

On my shoulder
