another rainy night -
the greensward is covered by
sunflower petals

trecuta vara;
pe sine dezafectate
trenuri garate

the ghastly garden-
a scared hedgehog baby
looking for its nest

beyond the window
wind's woeful suspiration-
cooling red embers

coliba de stuf
in mijlocul gradinii -
paznicul doarme

curcubeu pe cer -
sub vrejuri, in gradina
cruzi inca - pepenii

a cazut bruma -
ultimul pepene verde
sub rugi uscate

pe masa de lemn
seminte de pepene -
batranul doarme

a trecut ploaia...
involburat curge raul
pepenii - tacuti

the wooden bench wet
the stone one already frozen -
autumn encounter

paianjenul alb
in lumina lanternei
panza-i e goala...

tracing the cover
of my still unfinished book:
a cloud's gold lining

the scent of mint leaves
in the afternoon drizzle
no words between us

apa de nisip
printre maluri cu flori mov
curgand catre niciunde

vita de vie
acoperind fereastra:
cerul peticit

pasari pe balta
zburand in cercuri stranse –
se lasa seara…

sperietoarea:
strajer zdrenturos uitat
in lanul de grau

lanul secerat
baloti rotunzi de paie -
templu efemer

tablou de Van Gogh
lan de floarea soarelui -
margine de drum

calcand pe roua ;
parfumul ierbii crude
se ridica brusc

ploaie de vara -
pe firul de telegraf
patru randunici

zi trecatoare -
o ultima privire:
barca disparand...

ceaţă de seară -
în oglindă paloarea
feţei bunicii

tarziu in noapte -
luna scufundata in
ultima cafea

in tinda casei:
aroma de dovleac copt
imbie seara

mocneste focul
sub porumbul copt in jar -
sfarsit de vara

tufa de trandafiri -
panza de paianjen
intinsa intre tepi

serene summer sky -
the hot wind folds and unfolds
a flock of sparrows

a flock of little crows
standing still in the forest
surprised by the rain

the mime's shabby hat -
still large enough for crickets
a hole in the brim

beyond your silence -
a long-distance train whistle
into the darkness

dulceata de nuci
umbra mainii pe borcan -
mama n-o vede
