World Haiku Series 2019 (210)

Haiku by Hana Tatara

 

the golden soar of phoenix                

tailing into the air                          

sunset feather clouds                        

 

鳳凰の飛翔のひかり夕焼雲                

 

airplane cloud

white stitch

on blue sky

 

青空の白きステッチ飛行機雲

 

rose scented night                    

a gorgeous sleep                    

on petals

                                  

花びらを臥所(フシド)にしたき薔薇の夜        

 

moonlit night

plum petals transforming into

scales of a dragon

 

花びらの竜鱗となる梅月夜

 

Sprouts                                                                                                                                                                                             coming out of a gigantic tree

the stripped darkness

 

暗闇を剥ぎて大樹の芽吹きかな

 

sakura in full bloom                   

sloping down to the ground                

Torrent

                                                                   

なだれては激流となる花万朶              

 

the shadow in daylight

full of white crosses

doku-dami flowers

 

昼闇に白き十字架どくだみ草

 

dark night

lit by fireflies

dancing in love

 

宵闇にひかりのダンス恋蛍

 

body’s shape

copied on futon

night sweat

 

肉叢(シシムラ)の跡くっきりと寝汗かな

 

flight in line

on the lane of wind

cranes go north

 

風道(カザミチ)に列なす鶴の北帰行

 

 

Ms. Hana Tatara kindly and delightedly presented her picture for the World Haiku Series 2019.

 

 

Bio:

Hana Tatara belongs to a Japanese traditional haiku group named Nininno- kai.

In her childhood her mother who loved haiku often took her to ku-kai (a gathering of haiku poets) though it was very boring for a child.

She can say now that it made her start her haiku life.
