Five Haiku Poems by Maria Teresa Sisti

 



Five Haiku



rainbow -
a naked hawthorn
full of winter



lost my hat -
yesterday's north wind
now is elsewhere



red berries -
flowers of the first frost
fragrance free



winter stars -
gets on the first train
his farewell



childhood flavours -
in grandma's pot
pumpkin soup






Maria Teresa Sisti , born and raised in Belgium until the age of twelve when she moved permanently to Italy for family and study reasons .

She began to read and study haiku in 2014, deciding to write her own with the help of everything that her gaze, touch and smell can capture from nature, life and everyday life that surround her.

She has participated in literary competitions obtaining important awards. Her poems have been published online and in printed magazines in Italy and around the world. She was listed in the European Top 100 haiku authors and at 2021 she published her first haiku collection "Piccoli semi di arancio" ( Little orange seeds ) printed in Italy on behalf of Accademia Barbanera.
