JEDNO UZ DRUGO / ONE NEXT TO THE OTHER

SENRYU

* * *

pištolj u ruci:
iz novčanika curi novac
u spremnik za gorivo

* * *

jedno uz drugo:
njegova sjena ima
trudnički trbuh

* * *

stinuti nosić –
na obiteljskom ručku
tihi prdac

* * *

bez presvlačenja...
s pisaljkom književnica
s metlom domaćica

* * *

mravi u kuhinji
bomboni bez šećera
nedotaknuti

* * *

financijska kriza –
umjesto Zlatnog pjenušca
pijem Srebrni

HAIKU

* * *

uz smrznut prozor
u haiku diplomi
cvrčkova pjesma

* * *

dan se gasi
u rodinom gnijezdu
blješte kljunovi

* * *

dugi kljun
iz rodina gnijezda
užiže zvijezde

* * *

na jednoj nozi
djeca u kabanicama
igraju se rode

* * *

otvoren prozor
jastuk izlaže lice
zimskom suncu

* * *

badnji ručak
drugi dimnjak do nas
još s bijelom kapom

* * *

snježni metež
u patuljkovom naručju
drhti lavanda

* * *

kola drndaju
magla učvršćuje
složene buće

TANKA

* * *

rođendan
anđeli mi donose
anđele
mjehurići pjenušca
kotrljaju moja kolica

* * *

isprekidana
linija života
na mom dlanu
električnim kolicima
vozim djecu iz susjedstva

SENRYU

* * *

gas pump nozzle:
money from the wallet
flows into a gas tank

* * *

one next to the other:
his shadow has
a pregnant belly’s shade

* * *

squeezing our noses –
at a family dinner
a silent fart

* * *

without changing her clothes ...
with pen a writer
with broom a housewife

* * *

ants in the kitchen –
sugarless candy
untouched *

* * *

financial crisis –
instead of the gold sparkling wine
I drink the silver one

HAIKU

* * *

frost on the window –
in haiku diploma nearby
the cricket’s song

* * *

the sunset -
in the white stork’s nest
glistening bills

* * *

a long bill
from the stork’s nest
kindles the stars

* * *

on one leg
children in raincoats
play the stork game

* * *

window ajar
the sun caressing
a lone pillow

* * *

Christmas Eve dinner
on the second chimney from us
still a white cap

* * *

the snow flurry
in the dwarf’s bosom
shaking lavender

* * *

a strumming cart ...
the fog secures
the piled gourds

TANKA

* * *

birthday party
my anđels bring
angels to me
the champagne bubbles
rolling my wheelchair
