My December 2014 Kigo text

behind
the closed factory gate
a ceased snowstorm

Kigo subject was WINDBREAK


In Finland we have yearly some closed factories...

I myself, as a child, lived inside a small factory and when a Sunday I do remember the silence... Great.

frozen river -
where the fish under the ice
swimming to?

Cool !
First snow
landed safely!

first snow -
someone already
walked on it

November evening -
sky over eastern forests
diminishing

Moonless day -
eagerly waiting
the sunset

October 2014 Kukai,

Kigo subject was MOONLESS NIGHT

Indian summer -
a cricket found
its lost voice

September 2014 Shiki Kukai
Kigo subject was CRICKET

misty morning -
sky's lights spread
all over nowhere

crow's nest -
youngsters arguing
where to fly

Shiki Kukai, August 2014, Topic: goodbye/parting words

Setting sun -
sunflower's shadow
still warm

Shiki Kukai, August 2014; Kigo: sunflower

a clap of thunder -
behind a closed window
an angry world

a thirsty cloud
passed the torrent -
victory!

The whole forest
out of tune -
easterly winds

early morning -
some of the trees
slept at all, either?

all these
fresh maple leaves
ready for eternity?

An early sun

I had a vision how to write An Early Sun as a threeliner:

an early sun
frying up our old moon
ripe

Another version, an too early sun peeped straight into my sleepy eyes. Warm enough. A blackbird is busy to feed its babies:

An early sun
watching the blackbird
eating an early worm

Cool morning -
as nothing special
the sun warming up

Labels: Sunspot, Sun's magnetism


(They say they are dampening down?)

easterly winds -
with an uninvited
hostile mosquito

If someone claims this as a political threeliner,
or a comment for Crimean affairs, etc,

so, what to say?


:-)

did you slept enough
during this long winter,
o early sun?

snowman's grave -
some of the memories
rinsed out

This one is a formulation for an old idea:

not yet ready,
     the snowman -
child's afternoon nap

There is not any more snows here, though we just got some sleet,
or perhaps not any snowmen seen around here.


An explanation for this problem was this text variation:

running spring waters
rinsing out -
snowman's grave

All this is from a piece of paper
that was hiding inside Louis Zukofsky's "A", page 376:

"An inequality /// wind flower"

(Copyrighted By Louis Z.)

Tasting that text and I should put the word "flower" as "flowers"

?-)


Ps. I understood that Mr. Zukofsky's son does not like to see his father's text borrowed nowhere, but here is just so few words that perhaps no problem?-)

Just a few word
among all the world's poetry
are inequality?

mayday

Snow is frozen rain.
It is soft and white
and often settles on the ground.


(From Oxford Wordpower Dictionary, Oxford UP 1993.)

sleet celebrating
the global warming -
1st of May

Here is definition for snow
from Webster's Third New International Dictionary, page 2158:

I prefer that one from small Oxford more poetical one ?-)

ceased wind -
one leaf not yet reached
nirvana

My January 2014 Shiki Free Format Entry. Got one point!

freezing cold --
though the global war
getting warmer and warmer

Here I'm tasting the words 'war' - 'warm'...

a farmer
snuggled down -
all the bugs
deeply silent


This one is because I had to write something around the word 'snuggle'.

Anyway, just a few war-news, Afghanistan, Bangkok, Ukraina.

And in Finland somewhat just cold.

And due to Chinese money world economic is going forward.

   my nose dripping 
   onto an icy path - 
   deep-frozen drops
