Haiku by Radostina Dragostinova

 

my daughter

teaching paper angels

how to spread wings

 

私の娘

紙の天使に教える

翼の広げ方を

 

a bee

on the dew-sprinkled rose blossom

spring moon

 

蜂

露のかかったバラの花に

春の月

 

falling dusk

newspapers lorry whiffles

all the good news

 

夕暮れ

新聞のトラックが吹きちらす

すべての良いニュースを

 

entertainment maze& labyrinth

all the words

we conceal

 

娯楽のための迷宮と迷路

すべての言葉を

私たちは隠す

 

on the dusty shelter

in the abandoned bookstore

a sunbeam

 

ほこりっぽい避難所で

放棄された書店の中

太陽光線

 

soft light

in the mud puddles

white lotuses

 

やわらかい光

泥の水たまりに

白い蓮

 

beaver moon

mom plants daffodils

in the garden

 

ビーバームーン

ママが水仙を植える

庭に

 

watermelon juice

drips down her chin

July sunset

 

スイカのジュース

彼女のあごからポタポタ落ちる

7月の夕焼け

 

too much to leave

too much if I stay . . .

winter sunset

 

去るには多すぎる

留まるなら多すぎる

冬の夕焼け

 

low sun

in the clay gnome’s hands . . .

cherry blossoms

 

低い太陽

粘土のグノムの手に

桜の花
