frost moon





stand by me
frost moon's secret
shared one night only

wind chill





wind chill

the helpful friction
of two stars in dark nights

black and white
thinking of your fingertips
at my breasts

woman power
the sweet-sour soup
served without

urban silence
a cat without teeth
smiles at me

lake ice noises
the one rift
that separate us

winter god
the first breath
without mask

auf mutters ruhelosen händen
ein kleiner glitzerstern

on mother's restless hands
a little glittering star

Die Inspiration zu diesem haiku kam aus der Facebook Haiku-Gruppe 'haiku-like' und ist die Idee von Eléonore Nikolay: 


Meine Bücher dichten ein Haiku

1. Schau dir die Titel auf den Bücherrücken in deinem Regal an und lege drei davon zu einem Haiku aufeinander.
2. Fotografiere sie und stell das Bild hier unter Haiku-Challenge 2 ein.

same dream each night diving with tortoises into a rainbow

brand new suitcase

Caput Mortuum

 





caput mortuum


pine bonsai
the edge of the world 
snow powdered


my one-line poem
then the bus drove off
on a frosted oak leaf


if I die in winter put me an ilex wreath on my head the rest for the wolves


LaLeLu 
is it Santa's voice
only a frozen maple leaf
scratches the moon


three old ravens argue
about the hedgehog's leaf grave
I close the window

The Goddess & The Green Man

 




The Goddess & The green Man



lilac scent your soft lips open



sage buds without any question I say yes



spirited away. better use a fairy catcher this month power 



woodruff carpet the moment I know I'm yours



behind the glass door finding back the stolen milk

angel dust of words

the chaos that grows like a lover inside my fifth heart chamber probably the sky filled with lemon birds and rain and a smile of the cyber doll that's you

tongue by tongue
whose aubade
parting in the morning
