Haiga & Haiku Poems by Christina Chin

 


Haiga

sunning and singing 

tiny feet dangle 

from the swing

 

 

Five Haiku with translations by 中野千秋

 

goslings clear the choked waterways

invasive water hyacinth

 

雛鳥の水路にホテイアオイかな  千秋

 

roast chestnut in shitake mushrooms

laid on the table

 

椎茸の中に焼栗卓上に  千秋

 

marine park teeming with fish

coral snakes in the reefs

 

海洋公園海蛇のゐる珊瑚礁  千秋

 

primrose in November

confuses the season

 

季節間違え霜月の桜草  千秋

 

south island December

under the bright blue sky warm breeze

 

空青し南の島の十二月  千秋
