Aozora haiku publication : April 2000

Zdravko Karakehayov
Bulgaria

pinecones
between the ground
and the kid's hand

Ludmila Balabanova
Bulgaria

in the night
bits of light--
the rain

Nikola Nilic
Doza Djerbdja 70, 21000 Novi Sad, Yugoslavia
Submission by letter

Milky Way
scatters across the meadow
camomille tea

zenith of spring
moon turns red
in the cherry-tree top

Zoran Doderovic
Novi Sad, Yugoslavia

An end of program / on the night radio -- / rain is beating.

Autumn leaves --/ yellow teddy bear / beside the container

Cafe by the road -- / shepherd with a smile observes / the eclipse of the sun

Widely open / magpie´s beak -- / summer heat.

Midnight underground -- / in the empty streetcar / the handles sway

Camp fire -- / the sparks are mixing / with stars

Dragan J. Ristic
Nis, Yugoslavia

a wave goes--
on the white river stone
a red capillary

the big raindrops
on the advertising billboard
changed smile

Dusko Matas
Croatia

in the moonlight
a quiet rustle reveals
a swaying shadow

Darja Kocijancic
Slovenia

Bach's concerto
resounds out of loud-speakers --
the fair of furniture

sweet berries
on a layer cake --
a puckish child's laugh

street's throng--
a child attentively carries
gold fish in a bowl

the fragrance of melt
behind a brewery
sunset --

Edin Saracevic
Slovenia

a sound of Wartburg
drives me back
to communism

Postojna's cave--
a blind tourist
touches the stalactite

foggy evening--
with the first spurt of my urine
a fragrance of antibiotic

mountain top--
a baby sucking
its mother's nipple

a city dump--
amongs the heavy wastes
a half of corn-cob

hotel Sport --
through a toilet ventilation
jingling of cowbell
