poem
it's summer
small birds
have the courage
to start their day
unless human-caused
troubles
their songs

lemons
Sicily's sun
filled this bowl

a street
without trees
cars ate them up

poem
not only the fish
are characters
in this play
the heron also
plays his secret role
and could appear
at any time
the clouds would be
spectators

poem
Draußen
sitzen, lesen.
Vorsicht! Da liegt
die andere Brille!
Frappé im Glas,
Eiswürfel klimpern.
Eine Elster meckert,
Wildtauben gurren und
ich kann dieses Gurren
nicht ausstehen.

poem
The noise barrier.
Behind it gardens
with sheds and flags.
A strange smell
from somewhere.
The good things are
nearly ripe apples,
flowers, berries, coffee
in blue cups.

haiku
Nacktschnecken!
Kenne keinen,
der sie mag! Keinen!

poem
Magst du Wolken,
fragte ich die KI.
Ja, ich mag Wolken,
war die Antwort.
Danach ging es um
Wasser und Eis.

haiku senryu
summer morn
birds chatter about
workaday life
