Dmitry Kudrya
now my flowers
see the sky
of a different shape
christmas lights
twinkling at the bottoms of the glasses
last days of the year
snowfall during the thaw
talking about
the japanese porcelain
strolling towards
the familiar picture
the rooks have come back
the moon in the bull’s-eye
a completely different
matter
it’s stone throw!
the driver waves at me
in his own language
in time for the sunset
the evening clouds
Dmitry Kudrya (Petrovich)
(Russia)
"…My first encounter with haiku was a bit funny: long time ago and almost accidently I learnt that the epigraph to my favourite novel by the Strugatsky brothers "Snail on the slope" was not a quote from the prose, but a stand-alone poem. I started to read more, then to write my own haiku. Many years have passed but I am still facinated and surprised by the genre. What I appreciate most in haiku is not following strict canons, but attention to Different in the form that combines conceptual and evident."
