september
the birds are flying towards
the growing moon

plus-minus
nine grams of bees -
a grape seller

street violinist
in his hat
the first yellow leaf

autumn dew
a cat tiptoeing
in the garden

violet scent
a spider descends
from the moon

black square
from the other side
a moth tapping

spring morning
a stream of ants
carries the leaves

shooting star
one angel
misses the train

heat
a girl
applies the eye shadows

spider on the glass
the second-hand
not moving

rain drops
opening the windows
inwards

box of pencils
survived
black and white


"Give away to good home"
and "Pedigreed, expensive"
two puppies playing

Oleg Yurov
(Ukraine)

«Graduated from the University with a degree ih physics. After graduation I tought astronomy in the high school, worked in the theatre. Since 1993 I work as a meditation instructor. I wrote my first poem in 1997, and only later realised that it was haiku.

asked an old woman
about her youth
she kept smiling

My searches around this genre resulted in publication of several compilations of haiku and vers libre.»
