Let's haiku

[Aran]

Here are some more:

Lauka tuilére:
Alquar síve atani
Lelyar veruinen.

'A warm spring-day:
Swans, like people,
Are going in pairs.'


Ringa tuilére:
Erya korko mi malle,
Merenderyasse.

'A cold spring-day:
A single crow is holding
A feast in the street.'

[órerámar]

These are lovely, Aran, I like them.

I have a few spring/couple haiku in my drawer. I hope to find the time to put them into Quenya in the next days.

Here are some of my spring haiku of this year:

Cana i lisce
i lámar roitalion -
tuile eccoita

Behind the reed
the sounds of pursuits -
spring awakens


Nísima vista -
i quacór yando lengar
ve *cucualli

Fragranced air -
the crows too behave
like turtledoves

* cucualle (small dove) has been used by Helge Fauskanger in his Bible translation for turtledove. The turtledove is indeed smaller and more slender than the normal dove.

Vanta tuilesse -
ara sír rámaverullo
rámaverunna

A walk in spring -
beside a river from winged couple
to winged couple

Wenya salquesse
aiwe rice lámali -
linde hya hlóna

On the young grass
a bird tries many sounds -
song or noise

(first time I heard a starling and was surprised about the variety of strange sounds he emitted)

Anar nútala
Ua pustuva inyen:
Sinye hrestasse

The sinking sun
Won't stop for me:
Evening at the shore
