snow in mamma's hair
two squills underneath
how to blossom they

black tulip
in the garden
of the widow

an ivy hurrying up
to hide the cracks
the old house is for sale

alongside the vegetables -
marigolds
together they blossom

izmaglica -
BELE RUKE BERU
gloginje u šumi

morning mist -
WHITE HANDS PICKS HAWTHORN BERRIES
in the wood

Prvi dah zime -
BELA SLANINA I
čen belog luka

first breath of winter -
WHITE BACON
and a garlic

duboka senka -
BELA KOKOŠKA KLJUCA
opali kesten

deep shadow -
A WHITE HEN PECKS
fallen chestnut

pod krilom
BELO PAČE GREJE
žuti kqun

under the wing
A WHITE DUCKLING IS HEATING
its yellow beak

maglovito jutro -
PUŠI SE BELA KAFA
na kariranom stolnjaku

misty morning -
COFFE WITH MILK IS SMOKING
on the plaid table-cloth

Na starom odžaku
BELA RODA SVILA
novo gnezdo

on the old chimney
A WHITE STORK HAS MADE
one new nest

jesenja kiša -
tragovi stopa u blatu
sve dublji i dublji

autumn rain again -
footprints in the sludge
deeper and deeper

jesenja rasprodaja -
pauk ukrasio izlog
raskošnom mrežom

after autumn sale -
over shop-window
dressy cobweb trembling

Na tavanu
u godini štakora
ponestalo žita.

In the year
of the rat the attic has
run out of wheat.

Na tvrdi kamen
naslonih glavu, tijelo
prihvati trava.

I lay down my head
on the hard stone, the body
welcomed by the grass.

Ptica u kavezu.
Ubrzano kucanje srca
u nedogled.

A bird in the cage
Rapid pulse
for a long time.

Jedan meni
i jedan tebi
griz jabuke.

On for me
and one for you
bite of an apple.
