an'ya & Al Fogel: Wednesday Haiku, #79




pink twilight
through each flamingo's legs
another flamingo

          an'ya






outdoor cafe--
birds and people
tweeting

          Al Fogel




Noh mask of Tenjin




plum blossoms--
singing Tenjin's sutra
a sparrow
Issa
translated by David G. Lanoue





best,
Don

    an'ya writes lovely haiku: a contemporary master.

    So glad to see her work posted at your site, Don

    Conrad, I'm with you - I'd love to see more of an'ya's work around here and in print Lilliput, too.

    And thanks to you for this lovely and refreshing Wednesday tradition.

    Peace,

    Birds and people tweeting. Talk about a modern haiku.
