Gert W. Knop Poet Haiku

Ruf Der Taube/ Call of the Pigeon/ Grito De La Paloma

Erstrahlend im Licht
Das zarte Grün der Akazie
Und der Ruf der Taube




Shining in the light
The tender green of the acacia
And the call of the pigeon




Brilliando en la luz 
El delicado verde de la acacia 
Y el grito de la Paloma

Carolyn Devonshire August 5, 2010 at 1:42 PM Your beautiful imagery translates so well, Gert. A wonderful haiku. I love the sound the pigeon makes and picturing one in this setting almost seems surreal. Love, Carolyn
