reflected on the water
wild willow trees…
dragonflies flatter
downs of willow
falling into
evening calmness
Hideo Ebihara, Japan
*
fune yore ba uki-ha ni shiroki hana sakeri
getting closer by boat,
to the floating leaves
a little white flower
takumashiki donau yanagi no kuroki miki
how robust
the black trunk
of the DUNAREA willow
Shinya Ogata, Japan
*
scattering clouds –
into wind-whipped ripples
a white feather vanishes
so close to the roots
of this old willow tree –
the delta at twilight
Sonia Cristina Coman, Romania
*
wata tobi-te donau deruta no wakaki iki
flying willow fluffs
from young breath
of the Danube Delta
water lilies in bloom
in the Danube Delta,
inviting me to dreams
wako, Japan
*
take me with you,
white bird – deep shadows
over the waters
Visnja McMaster, Croatia
*
June tempest in Danube Delta
a gray heron tries to keep its stillness
Ion Codrescu, Romania
*
pelican was yama mo ugoke to habataki-nu
as if to move
even mountains, a pelican
takes off
Yoshifumi Aga, Japan
*
shades of green
fill the water…
the Danube Delta
Takashi Ikari, Japan
