walk to the train station –
my cellphone holder bounces
along the road

raking leaves away
from summer’s empty hammock;
their voices now gone.

The caterpillar -
Such a courageous venture
To cross the pavement.

Easter hail

Posted in Spring, Submission, Tanka on March 26, 2008 by Tito

At her homestay’s end
We hurry to the station
Under Easter hail:
A childless man together
With a fatherless daughter.

(Kamome, with own German translation)

Aufenthaltsende -
Durch grellen Osterhagel
Gehn wir zum Bahnhof:
Ein vaterloses Maedchen
Mit einem kindlosen Mann.
