better the collection of entries, the harder it is to judge a haiku contest.
Some of the outstanding poets who have participated in this year’s Sharpening
the Green Pencil event write in the classic format, and some prefer a more
modern vein, minus the kigo.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNoSpacing"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 14pt;">Some
address heavy, somber subjects, and others preserve the karumi, or lightness, that
Matsuo Basho so prized in his later years. It is my belief that great haiku
come in a variety of forms, and we know them immediately, because they resonate
with concrete sensation and truth, but also leave space for interpretation. I
have deep appreciation for the works I’ve had the honor to read, and I thank
the winners for sharing their visions of the world.</span></p>

<p class="MsoNoSpacing"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 14pt;">At
first glance, this haiku seems to suggest a father and son simply changing
sides at the halftime of a game of soccer, football, rugby, or hockey. We don’t
know if it’s a game in which they are both playing, or simply watching together
and rooting for separate teams, but we do know halftimes usually come at the
45-minute point, and last 13-15 minutes. Instead of employing a seasonal kigo,
the author here subtly
addresses a time of life when the relationship between a father and son shifts,
and when their goals can be reversed. Perhaps the urge to make money and be successful
fades into a desire for quality family time as a father ages or approaches the
halftime of his life, at 45. Sons, often by age 15, are ready to try on
independence from their parents, and their goals change, too, focusing
outwardly toward
their own futures. By leaving in the word “posts” at the end of the haiku, the
author saves the poem from didacticism, and creates a thoughtful work on the
dynamics of family life.</span></p>

<p class="MsoNoSpacing"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 14pt;">Skillful
alliteration, with the repetition of w’s, makes the reading of this haiku easy,
but the subject matter—the short news cycles covering something as momentous as
war—condemns our inability to learn from yesterday’s mistakes. The wire basket,
presumably the kind that sits on a news desk, takes on an ominous chill with
the final line, turning into a metal cage that holds a record of horrors, read
and soon forgotten repeatedly. This dark haiku is a good example of where
modern haiku shines, and when a seasonal reference might be beside the point.</span></p>

<p class="MsoNoSpacing"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 14pt;">At
dawn, a spring path to the “burial place” of someone or something, is scattered
with fallen blossoms. The scene is pretty, as if nature has festooned the trail
with an offering to the dead, and yet of course the fallen petals themselves
are expiring. A “trail” and a “burial place” both suggest great intimacy—this
is not, it would seem, a formal cemetery, but a place selected specially, a
secret interment location. This led me to suspect the haiku is about a deceased
beloved pet. The fact that there is a trail suggests that the burial place is
visited often enough to maintain a clear path, and that someone (the poet
perhaps) prefers the earliest light of day to visit and remember the lost one.
The poem brings a lightness to the grieving process
and to mono-no-aware, or awareness of the ephemeral nature of life.</span></p>

skillfully this helps us hear the thin sugar-brittle leaves of fall, and the
way they crack under the lightest pressure. Alliteration of repeating hard “c”
sounds adds to the crunching tableau. Finally, the poet points out the

<p style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0in;"><span style="color: black;">It has
been both a pleasure and an honour to judge this competition. From a strong
field I have chosen two joint winners. One is traditional and the other
intriguingly modern. We need to beware of false dichotomies in the world of
haiku - the best of the modern will, through time, be assimilated into the
tradition : they will themselves become traditional. For this reason I cannot
separate the two winners; they are equally deserving of first place.</span></p>

<p style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0in;"><span style="color: black;">A gently
beautiful haiku. The double meaning of ‘shadow’ is clear but doesn’t dominate.
The mirroring of the alliteration of the first line in the last line
is beautifully handled as is the interplay between ‘spring’ and the ‘young
nurse’. There’s a timelessness to this haiku that really appeals to me. It
would be impossible not to relate to this finely written poem.</span></p>

<p style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0in;"><span style="color: black;">I’m
always delighted to come across a haiku that avoids cliché. This intriguing
haiku cleverly plays with Aesop yet wears its erudition lightly. Moons and
dragonflies certainly have their place but they need careful handling to avoid
coming over as ‘cut and pasted’. There is NOTHING ‘cut and paste’ about this
haiku : it’s original and the structure works superbly.</span></p>

<p style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0in;"><span style="color: black;">This
haiku grew upon me with each reading. The idea of a single feather becoming
something greater than itself drew me in. Whether intentional or not I also
couldn’t help thinking of Banya Natsuishi’s ‘Flying Pope’ haiku. At the heart
of this haiku there is a striking image of a single falling feather BUT there
is also a comment on the art of a haiku’s creation: this
duality adds a further layer to a fine poem.</span></p>

<p style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0in;"><span style="color: black;">A fine
haiku can lift the ordinary into the realms of the extraordinary. That is
certainly the case with this poem. The suggestion of things
beginning to fall apart, through age and infirmity, is beautifully handled. The
specificity of ‘late winter’ drew me in and the the idea of ‘leftovers’
becoming fixed held my attention. This haiku is finely crafted.</span></p>

<br />
It was the conciseness of a just-so juxtaposition and a subtle science lesson
which elevated this poem for me. Late season monarchs migrate south, lay eggs
and die. It is the second generation which flies north again where the third
generation will be born. Many of us also grew up not knowing our grandparents
for whatever reason: geographic distance, adoption, estrangement or death. Yet
they are very much a part of us, and there is no doubt their decisions affected
the generations that followed. For those with immigrant ancestors, we know our
lives would have been vastly different had they not made that long trip.<br />

Simpson, New Zealand)<br />
<br />
Working a tactile sensation into haiku can be a difficult task, but here we can
almost feel a lump of clay spinning on a wheel, taking shape in the potter’s
hands. It is a slow process and one that requires patience. “Whorls and ridges”
could describe the design of the bowl itself or contours of the artist’s
fingertips. When fingerprints are found in a finished piece, there is no
mistaking its individual nature and the care with which it was created. This
alone is a striking image, but a resonance emerges when this image is paired
with “longest night”- a time when the seasons themselves turn, taking on more
and more light - in the unique nature of time itself.<br />

<br />
“blueberry dusk” is such a charming way to describe a season, time of day and
color! The fruit theme continues with “a fresh crop” and the “farm field” so it
is a delightful surprise that the crop is not an edible one at all, but rather
fireflies. The repeated “f” sounds feel like firefly sightings themselves,
popping up here and there. We know those little lights shine even brighter with
a blueberry dusk backdrop!<br />

Night skating has a romantic feel, but this skater is alone with the moon’s
reflection on a large glass-like mirror. Once the skater’s blademarks scratch
the surface however, a mosaic artwork is created with bits of moon in each
piece. One can almost feel the skater’s delight as she/he makes this discovery
and races to slice more pieces - no longer alone at all!<br />

<br />
Wonderful “w” sounds in this poem reminiscent of the wind itself. The harshness
of that “whipsnap” suggests the worries and are still working their way into
the poet’s thoughts. As this seems to be a regular occurrence (“another”)
perhaps the poet is washing his/her hands of the whole mess of worries, come
what may (“hung out to dry”). Or possibly, this daily ritual of hanging clothes
on the line is meditative in a way that helps the poet set the worries of the
day aside.<br />

poem offers a confrontation with mortality. Even if the diagnosis is not
terminal, it’s still a sign of getting older, of becoming like the leaves of
autumn. Human nature is seamlessly melded with nature and its unfolding seasons
in this poem. Haiku often celebrates the ephemeral, and here we are reminded
that even our entire lives are not to be taken for granted.</span></i></span></div>

“offer” empowers the homeless man to decline an offering, a word choice that

enjoy the idleness in this poem, that moment of having morning tea, of sitting
at a window or on a patio. The purpose is to have tea, not look at clouds, but
still the poet notices the clouds and their many shapes, and perhaps those shapes
represent the many duties that lie in the day ahead. Having tea has brought the
poet into closer awareness of nature. I imagine this to be summer.</span></i></span></div>

<span lang="EN" style="color: white; font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 14.0pt;">Everything
about this poem is charming: who does not welcome a sea breeze? And what is
so winsome as a foreign accent (at least when we deem it so)? And what astute
reader does not appreciate that slight slip from “breeze” to “breathe” that
is at the heart of this poem? So many elements have been piled up to beguile
us.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span lang="EN" style="color: white; font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 14.0pt;">But
the poem is not about charm, but foreignness: what can it mean to “breathe
in” an accent? We might convince ourselves we know what the poet intends, but
in fact it’s impossible to be certain. Doesn't the poem, then, enact itself?
This seamless and streamlined packet of words slips by us before we hardly
have time to think. We rely upon its charm — trust it, even — to steer us
through that which cannot be fully comprehended, to bring us face to face
with what we might not be willing to face if we were to think it through.
Breathe in an accent? Charming... and then what? So much implicit in a
little dalliance beside the sea...</span><span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 12.0pt;"><o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="color: white; font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 14.0pt;">I can’t be sure, but I expect the poet intends us to read “barbed wire”
as an accoutrement of war, though it could be more normal — more mercantile —
as simply a measure to keep the cattle penned in. In any case, these flights
of childhood are no match to the stern realities of the adult world, and the
telling image is an overt lesson to those who come upon it. If not for the
slightly “telling” first line, this poem probably would have ranked higher
for me.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span lang="EN" style="color: white; font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 14.0pt;">While recognizing the quality of this poem, I admit
to uncertainty as to where it should rank. There are two primary reasons for this:
1) the butterfly as a symbol of impermanence is hardly a new idea, especially
in haiku; and 2) the self-reference in this poem is primarily about the
persona of the poem (arguably the poet). Taking up this latter point first,
it is perfectly acceptable to include personal pronouns in haiku, but their
reach is magnified when they are used to indicate a more communal aspect —
not the “I” of the poet, but the “I” of the species. While it is possible to
extrapolate such a position from this poem, it doesn’t seem its primary
focus. On the first point, there are so many lepidoptera in the literature
that it’s unnecessary to mention any single example. However, the whiteness
of these particular insects, specified, gives the poem something more. It is
as though they are the blank slate to which the poet has been reduced, all
color, all promise, stripped away. So, even though the poem is a bit
self-indulgent, it contains enough for the rest of us to be noted here.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="color: white; font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 14.0pt;">I wish I knew better
how to read this poem. It’s possible that the daughter’s knowledge of the
stars is a direct consequence of the war, and that she has memorized them
from some personal need: did she search the skies looking for a returning
plane? Did she wish upon the stars for a better future? And possibly the
poet’s intended readers know exactly what is meant here. But I find that I
did not, and that as a result I had to engage in quite a lot of speculation
as to how to make the two pieces of the poem line up. It is a testament to
the poetic materials assembled that even with my limited access to
understanding it, the poem compelled my attention, and haunts me for not
knowing more.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="color: white; font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 14.0pt;">This one requires little beyond itself to be
appreciated: a classic and clever misdirection haiku, and one that cannot
help but make us, like the viewer, smile. By way of historical appreciation,
perhaps unintended by the poet, the only other haiku reference of which I am
aware of “shining teeth” is by Michael McClintock in a very very different
context.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="color: white; font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 14.0pt;">This traditional haiku uses a neat pivoting middle line for its effect,
so making the morning light and the cuckoo’s call seem fashioned from the
same material. The physical dimension of the poem — the drip and the slip —
make the sliding of the one into the other all the more seamless and
enjoyable.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span lang="EN" style="color: white; font-family: "book antiqua" , serif; font-size: 14.0pt;">The
winning poem drew me towards it due to the delicacy of the picture presented,
through the close connection between man and animal. The horse and its master
have set together on the road, and they stop for a moment to rest and drink
water, but, because of the low temperatures the trough is frozen, so the
animal cannot drink. The master, however, probably numb with cold, gets
warmed somehow by catching the breath of the faithful animal in the palm of
his hands.</span><span lang="EN-AU" style="color: white; font-family: "book antiqua" , serif; font-size: 14.0pt;"><o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; text-align: justify; text-indent: 36.0pt;">
<span lang="EN" style="color: white; font-family: "book antiqua" , serif; font-size: 14.0pt;">The
two parts of the poem harmoniously weave around the complementarity
death-life (standing still versus animation) in a wintery landscape whose
glacial stiffness the reader can feel through his skin, due, partly, to the
alliteration of the consonant “r” which appears five times in the poem. It
can be speculated that the man, being too old and tired, or even ill, is
reanimated, and, why not, put back on his feet by the warm, miraculous breath
of his horse. </span><span lang="EN-AU" style="color: white; font-family: "book antiqua" , serif; font-size: 14.0pt;"><o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span lang="EN" style="color: white; font-family: "book antiqua" , serif; font-size: 14.0pt;">And,
what is even more beautiful, is the fact that this poem, through his props,
has taken me back in time, making me see no one else but Bashō himself nearby
the trough, sliding down his narrow path towards the far north.</span><span style="color: white; font-family: "book antiqua" , serif; font-size: 14.0pt;"><o:p></o:p></span></div>

is recyclable. Less warlike beings find, fearlessly, unthought of purposes
for destructive machines. Undoubtedly, the ancestor of this story with
unpredictable meaning for the carefree birds is the flower, set as a call for
peace in the pipe of a soldier’s gun.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

the innocence of the birds that built their nest over there, the otherwise
pathetic happening is, for us human beings, an innocent reproach among other
things, “Why would you not build nests for us from the beginning? Don’t your
silly things cost you too much ?”<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span lang="EN" style="color: white; font-family: "book antiqua" , serif; font-size: 14.0pt;">The
first line places the poem in the autumn season, on a day when everyone, in a
rustic setting, celebrates the abundance, the joy of life, thanking God for
what was given to them.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span lang="EN" style="color: white; font-family: "book antiqua" , serif; font-size: 14.0pt;">Part
two brings into the foreground a cricket that sends references to the summer
rather than to the autumn. With the word <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">last</i>,
one can speculate that the narrative instance, tired or bedridden and waiting
for his end, is enjoying the inspiring presence of the singing cricket that fills
the piggy bank of his soul, in his last moments. </span><span lang="EN-AU" style="color: white; font-family: "book antiqua" , serif; font-size: 14.0pt;"><o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span lang="EN" style="color: white; font-family: "book antiqua" , serif; font-size: 14.0pt;">On
the other hand, the piggy-bank, naturally, leads us to think of a child who
cannot enjoy the feast day enough because he is missing something, not
necessarily the money. It is rather a hollow feeling perhaps caused, why not,
by the absence of someone dear. What a beautiful surprise at the end of the
poem, that highlights the harmony between macro and microuniverse. The song
of the little bard that fills his little piggy-bank, this miniature savings bank
brings the all too full comfort to the kid, and, to us, readers, it seems to
subtly convey the message that the material is not what counts, but rather
the spiritual, in any form of manifestation.</span><span lang="EN-AU" style="color: white; font-family: "book antiqua" , serif; font-size: 14.0pt;"><o:p></o:p></span></div>

incomprehensible that the humble humming of the cricket and the boy’s shy
prayer interweave in the blessed beginning of a day.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span lang="EN-AU" style="color: white; font-family: "book antiqua" , "serif"; font-size: 14.0pt;">Even since
the judging began, I was attracted by the beauty of this poem and I was
convinced that it would be among the winning poems. The fog is a seasonal
element that gives the poem a special aura. A symbol of shapelessness, of
undetermined material space, the fog comprises three elements: air, water,
and earth. Alternatively, the fog means genesis, i.e. creativity, ideas and assumptions.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: justify; text-indent: 36pt;">

<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: justify; text-indent: 36pt;">
<span lang="EN-AU" style="color: white; font-family: "book antiqua" , "serif"; font-size: 14.0pt;">The first
part of the poem introduces us into the season, into a foggy, oppressive
atmosphere. The pregnant woman, on her way home or to work, who knows, gets
caught in the toils of fog; the word bound makes us perceive the fog like a
hallucinogenic trap, a maze that inoculates in this woman feelings of fear
and anguish. What makes her not to fall into despair, to remain calm, is the
song that the woman keeps humming while crossing the mist that upholsters the
space, wrapping around it like a huge shroud.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<span lang="EN-AU" style="color: white; font-family: "book antiqua" , "serif"; font-size: 14.0pt;"> We discover that the song that
somehow alleviates the atmosphere is
not addressed to a child that walks along with his/her mother, but to baby
not yet born. We can speculate that this unborn baby, maybe scared by its
mom’s fears, who is perhaps feeling anxious, starts kicking energetically,
eager to come earlier to life. Getting closer to each other through the song,
the mother and the baby face the hostile fog together. A very simple and
eloquent haiku sublimating the idea of maternity, which reminds me of a
beautiful proverb: “God could not be there for us literally everywhere and at
all times, and therefore he created the mothers.” Embraced by the mystery of both natural and
human world, this touching haiku ultimately speaks about hope and resilience.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span lang="EN" style="font-family: "book antiqua" , "serif"; font-size: 14.0pt;">The poem does not need kireji since it frames a meaningful story whose
meaning skids by itself, unexpectedly, from a practical matter to a
symbolical, almost exemplary, result. The characteristic charm and tension of
the poem consists in a contextual ellipsis whose hint is only given with its
last word. The hard work (done by just one individual or perhaps by us all)
turns out to be a kind of escape, release, patient purification of the water
which reflects the blue sky. <i>Piece by
piece</i>, as a result of our labour, the sky changes the backwater’s colour.</span><span lang="RO" style="font-family: "book antiqua" , "serif"; font-size: 14.0pt;"><o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span lang="EN" style="color: white; font-family: "book antiqua" , "serif"; font-size: 14.0pt;">Perhaps it is about an
imposing statue or, who knows, a small one that, even if not made of stone,
is sold as an amulet of indifference. In both cases, the <i>stone</i> symbolizes the stillness, the lack of movement, an
impassive attitude, which is paradoxically, serene and empathic. It is the
attitude which, without words, contaminates the viewer or the one who hides
it piously in his bosom, like a talisman always there with its bearer.
Aspiring to be the Buddha himself. An immutable, though barely sketched, smile.
Made of stone without crushing anything. Eternally lenient with everything
that is alive and sensitive. Even if it's awfully annoying.</span><span lang="EN-AU" style="color: white; font-family: "book antiqua" , "serif"; font-size: 14.0pt;"><o:p></o:p></span></div>

The contest is addressed to those who can write in Romanian, only. It has been and still is an excellent way to promote haiku for those who can speak Romanian. Furthermore, the haiku online contest has become a genuine school where a new generation of authors have been promoted.</span></div>

<span lang="RO" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;">The majority of the subscribers to our contest in Romanian have been participating to international contests in English and they gain many excelent results. We agree that the time has come to offer them a chance to confront the worldwide writers in a contest organized by us. So, the experience, which has been gained in these years, determined us to initiate a contest in English, language which is the mostly used by the haiku writers, currently.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;"><b>SHARPENING THE GREEN PENCIL</b> is a celebrating contest, but we hope and we wish that it will become a yearly event. A contest which - like other recognized contests - comes to stimulate the creativity of the authors and the quality of their poems, and to represent a way of mutual understanding and of enriching everyone’s experience.</span></div>

part of the poem – <i>quiet rain</i> –
sets up the atmosphere of an almost resigned sadness. Only in the final words
we learn that both the rain and the silence have a pendant in the dizziness
caused both by the illness and by the treatment. And we are not sure anymore
if the fog is associated to the rain or to the chemotherapy. Or maybe it
links these two together, making them as one.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

order to secure the place from contamination? Or maybe they invaded it with
playful intentions, inviting it at some ingenuous game?<o:p></o:p></span></div>

We can think about a couple who, after spending a long time under the summer
sun, enjoys also the appearance of stars. We can shift the events, the stars
being watched during another season, and the sun’s warmth being only a reflex
of her golden hair, just like the glow of sun during summer. It is possible
also that only he is watching the stars, and the sun’s warmth, still caught
in her hair, could be just a memory risen right there from the darkness in
which she vanished long ago.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

in both situations the chillness of the stars finds a counterweight in the
warmth of the sun. Or maybe just the hair, thus become an eternal substitute
of the sun? <o:p></o:p></span></div>

celebrated 5 years of online activity on April 1st, 2012. The contest is
addressed to those who can write in Romanian, only. It has been and still is an
excellent way to promote haiku for those who can speak Romanian. Furthermore,
the haiku online contest has become a genuine school where a new generation of
authors have been promoted.</span></div>

in Romanian have been participating to international contests in English and
they gain many excelent results. We agree that the time has come to offer them
a chance to confront the worldwide writers in a contest organized by us. So,
the experience, which has been gained in these years, determined us to initiate
a contest in English, language which is the mostly used by the haiku writers,
currently.</span></div>

and permanent invasion of a space destined for harvest and summer reverie.
For it was not only the apples, legendarily the most tempting, round-shaped
fruits, that perished in this prolific space, but also the quiet rest in the
grass swayed by the insects’ busy humming. They all disappeared under the
glacial, unforgiving whiteness.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

fear, you ask yourself: why me of all people? How is it going to end? Am I
going to survive? Then, after surgery, you start the chemotherapy treatment.
The doctor has warned you: know that each of the growing tissues is attacked,
the nails, the hair. A few days later, a tuft of hair gets stuck on your
comb. You have decided to cut off all your hair and, while gazing at the
mirror, you realize that you don’t look like yourself anymore. There was also
a mental change, you are no longer who you used to be before. Now, all daily
worries seem so trivial! If you were a man, you would shave your head. But
you are a woman. Inevitably, you will have to fight: with yourself, with the
disease. You will put on a wig. And ostentatiously, you’ll choose a bright
colorful one to surprise the people around you, whose faces try to hide the
worry every time they see you, “<i>What’s
wrong with you, dear, what happened?” “Oh, just a whim of mine, a carnival
fantasy</i>” you reply.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span lang="RO" style="font-family: "Book Antiqua","serif"; font-size: large;">The
winning poem is filled with ineffability and fragility (<i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">the butterflies)</i> and sadness (<i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">I'll
never see again</i>). The haiku is devoid of the sentimentality that often
accompanies such themes, the lines are perfectly ordered, the whole texture
has a great impact on the reader’s imagination and there is music in the
rhythms of the words. That makes the whole scene much more poignant.</span></div>

<span lang="RO" style="font-family: "Book Antiqua","serif"; font-size: large;">Although
it is not a quiet poem in subject, the form is perfectly consonant with the content,
and the way the tension evolves towards the end engages our imagination and
increases the impact of the message. The sense of quiet acceptance in the
haiku appeals to me on a deep level. Each time you reread it, you can
discover a different meaning/perspective.</span></div>

<div class="Frspaiere" style="text-align: justify; text-indent: 35.4pt;">
<span lang="RO" style="font-family: "Book Antiqua","serif"; font-size: large;">There are
hints of a possible death or the author’s own impending<b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;"> </b>passing away. Perhaps it is about a sick child who has no chance
of survival and in his last moments, full of regrets, enjoys nature all
around ... Perhaps he caught butterflies with a net and after he has released
them meditates on his own life, maybe as fragile as the pattern that was made
by the dust on a butterfly's wings.</span></div>
<div class="Frspaiere" style="text-align: justify; text-indent: 35.4pt;">

<div class="Frspaiere" style="text-align: justify; text-indent: 35.4pt;">
<span lang="RO" style="font-family: "Book Antiqua","serif"; font-size: large;">The first
line (<i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">letting go...</i>) is a poignant
parallel for the expectation of the end of a life and it had a powerful
effect on me on first reading. It seems likely that the person watching
butterflies had a heart attack or something similar in the recent past and is
frightened of any recurrence of illness in the next days. Connecting to the
mother nature gives the writer the possibility to trancende, to overcome for
a moment the terrible desease.</span><span lang="RO" style="font-family: "Book Antiqua","serif"; font-size: xx-small; mso-fareast-language: RO;"> <span style="font-size: large;">Extrapolating,
this haiku is like a<i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;"> chronicle of a
death foretold </i>and the the suffering person, with his last breath, seems
to say:<i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;"> ,,Verweile doch, du bist so schön
”/,,Stay a while, you are so beautiful”.</i></span></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; text-indent: 36pt;">
<span style="font-family: "Book Antiqua","serif"; font-size: large;">A breezy expression perfectly
jointed with an allusive complex texture. The images rigorously cut to shape,
recalls, almost elliptically, through one single word, father, a memory: a
day in the midst of nature. For, obviously, the fishing was, as the empty
bucket says, a fiasco. Or just an innocent pretext for the child’s
initiation, not into the mysteries of a rather trivial and unproductive
occupation, but into those much more fruitful insights of human nature. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; text-indent: 36pt;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; text-indent: 36pt;">
<span style="font-family: "Book Antiqua","serif"; font-size: large;">The irony, scarcely masked,
addressed to the fortuneless fishermen, offers only the opportunity to
exploit the available void of the bucket to be filled, in a Zen manner, with
an invisible overflow of tenderness between father and child. The poem is an
instance to understand how to use in haiku a word, otherwise prohibited since
it is abstract and too lyrical – unforgetfulness: you place it into a
concrete container whose actual emptiness is just waiting to be filled. It is
true, with a diaphanous matter, perceived only with the heart and mind together.</span></div>

<div class="Frspaiere" style="text-align: justify; text-indent: 36pt;">
<span lang="RO" style="font-family: "Book Antiqua","serif"; font-size: large;">I was
genuinely moved by this poem. It seems to be a few lines from the diary of
woman who suffers profoundly. It is a real story about life after surgery and
the struggle for survival. The journey will not be the same... No one can
imagine what it is like to have no hope. Cancer is an awful process that
makes you to change a lot of things in regard to your entire life. You must
completly restore your attitude towards the reality around.</span></div>
<div class="Frspaiere" style="text-align: justify; text-indent: 36pt;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="Frspaiere" style="text-align: justify; text-indent: 36pt;">
<span lang="RO" style="font-family: "Book Antiqua","serif"; font-size: large;">The
spareness in the wording of this poem beautifully mirrors its powerful
message. For many women, the loss of a breast diminishes somehow their
femininity and sexual attractiveness. The scene with this woman looking at
herself in the mirror reveals a painful body. The suffering person may
certainly feel a sense of <i>existential vacuum</i> and emptiness. Most of us
find ourselves lost for words at such a shocking image. We wonder what to say
or not to say. It is terrible because a lot of women perceive breast cancer
as an attack against their innate feminine nature, their life seems a curse
and their spirituality is so much shaken.</span></div>
<div class="Frspaiere" style="text-align: justify; text-indent: 36pt;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="Frspaiere" style="text-align: justify; text-indent: 36pt;">
<span lang="RO" style="font-family: "Book Antiqua","serif"; font-size: large;">So, many
questions from a simple-looking haiku. <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">Why
me? How could God be so unfair? Is there life after surgery? Could someone
love me this way I am? </i>Perhaps the woman suffers much more because she
would have wanted to be a mother, but the disease has destroyed her dream...
This haiku leaves us with the striking image of a woman looking for answers
and a way to bring more confidence in her life.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>The prayer through writing<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>can be the best solution to stop the drain
of spiritual energy from the physical body....</span></div>
<div class="Frspaiere" style="text-align: justify; text-indent: 36pt;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="Frspaiere" style="text-align: justify; text-indent: 36pt;">
<span lang="RO" style="font-family: "Book Antiqua","serif"; font-size: large;">After
reading the poem, in our mind remains the heart-rending image of the woman
whose desire is to retain her sense of dignity/femininity.</span></div>

should be understood? This is a pretty deep question that captures our

poignant and subtle haiku, a piece of ,,open work”, deserves first place

tension will be resolved by the final line.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>I like to think that the<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>final
line lead us toward a particular conclusion, without having to spell out
exactly how the mistery resolves. That way, the tension is still alive, and
the story, grievous, but plausible and well crafted, can live beyond it’s
lines.</span></div>

constructed, the poem is like a rocking chair with the board supported by the

dynamic balance and their swing makes, one by one, each to occupy the higher
position, to be the one that, for now, dominates the other. Thus, the two
lines contaminate each other in meaning and we understand that the
perspective we are urged to take is the one of the person in the fall of his
life when friends gently leave this life, just like the leaves from the
branch on which they stood.</span></div>

celebrated 5 years of online activity on April 1st, 2012. The contest is
addressed to those who can write in Romanian, only. It has been and still is an
excellent way to promote haiku for those who can speak Romanian. Furthermore,
the haiku online contest has become a genuine school where a new generation of
authors have been promoted.</span></div>

in Romanian have been participating to international contests in English and
they gain many excelent results. We agree that the time has come to offer them
a chance to confront the worldwide writers in a contest organized by us. So,
the experience, which has been gained in these years, determined us to initiate
a contest in English, language which is the mostly used by the haiku writers,
currently.</span></div>
