Haiku by Samo Kreutz

 




HAIKU

 


headwaters ...

flowing forcefully

a new-born's cry

 


imagining

a small boy imagining

me as an old man

 


forty days rain

soaked to the bone

her menopause

 


pilgrimage ...

a faithful companion

the juicy apple

 


smell of petunias

hunched underneath

Jesus on the cross

 


rough sea ...

entangled in plastic

his ashes

 


j'accuse ...

that crow's echo

in my dream

 



Samo Kreutz lives in Ljubljana, Slovenia. Besides poetry (which he has been writing since he was eight years old), he writes novels, short stories and haiku.
