Dream-Chasing

One chases a dream
Until gets crashed from its heights
When should one’s chase stop

Helpless

Sapless one’s knowledge
In matters of the heart
Quenchless fieriness

Dreams

One’s love
Just a dream
Till shared

The Letter

A blank page
A love letter
Never sent

One More Day

One pushes own's limits
Just to survive
One more day

The shortest way
Between our hearts
Our honesty

Lock-in

When one closes
All roads to his heart
Weeds grow higher

What’s deepest love
But a cloudy dream
Without friendship

Truths might walk naked
Before one’s fair eyes
Till one learns to see

All I can give
A home in my heart
And in my thoughts

To love beloved’s light
And his darkness

On the edge
To glimpse the abyss

Beyond one’s mistakes
With each breath one can forgive
And be forgiven

Bridges between unknown lands
Start showing the way

Lost in translation
One lingers on words
Apparent meanings

I stretch the strings of meanings
Heartless puppeteer

One counts the years
Then one stops counting

To make a whole
From broken parts

Beholding its growth
Healing the wounds

A blind searching
For deeper meanings
Until all stops

One may find himself
Under the moonlight

Ignoring its pulse
Cold entrapment

Looking at stars
Reckoning a few
One feels right home

There’s more to people
Than mind can conceive
And heart could perceive

I loved a red rose
Fallen into daffodils
Life goes in circles

One searches for words
But all words have been spoken
Embracing no words

Impression

Fluffy snowflakes
Impressed a rabbit
Run rabbit run

In springtime
One plants the seeds
Of knowledge

In summer
One learns the growth
Of nature

In autumn
One harvests all
In wisdom

In winter
One nourishes
Own’s nature

Dispersed trees
In the foggy sky
Inversed ships

Walking on grass
The earth moves with us
In cosmic dance

Is what one can’t see
Sides of same moon

A masterpiece
Remains incomplete
Without beholders

Own’s values
One’s illusions
Of beauty

Watching the pond
Back and forth ripples
Embraced stillness

From two sparrows
A tomcat chooses
The one that moves

Haunting images
Of a night’s nightmares
Crawl over the day

Timing

Moved by my touch
A rose closed itself
Waiting its time

Stretched by meanings
An haiku changes
Own’s perception

Perception

To see one’s magic
A window must be open
As from soul to soul

Magic

The magic we hold
Sparks the magic we create
Candles in the night

Silhouettes

Naked silhouettes
Stand up against the river
Embracing its stream

Flavors

Sweetness and sour
Combine in one’s mouth
And in one’s life

To the less desirable
Surprises abound

Of wearing a suit
That gives glamour

The rage outside
Calms the rage inside
Two teaspoonful

The naked stairs
Remind me of you
Soundless moments

On the naked stairs
A lost angel looks afar
In the rising sun

In the old town
Each house a legend
Waiting its turn

Trains come and go
Over the window
Thoughts come and go

To remove the mud
Covering a small diamond
One has first to try

Running after clouds
Imaginary rainbows
Let themselves untouched

Belonging to each other
Over broken bridge

Purple and green
In midst of sunset
Returning home

Our wishes for more
In pond my self

A full house
Is still empty
Without her

Her on my shoulder
Black cat purring

After the shower
Inviting tease

More warm tea for the beloved
To fill from within

Pushes another
Pulled by a dream

One finds a home
Anywhere

[Unnamed]

What is love
But a rainbow
Before rain

Knowing nothing
One begins to know
The nothingness

Nows

In love
With the days
Being

The Way

Not the mastery
Of the known or the unknown
Being there aware

A butterfly's flight
A rainbow arch after rain
All is a lesson

Formless

One learns form
Copies its form
Escapes form

Blossoms

Three rare blossoms
Never seen blossomed
Springtime's over

Words

At first glimpse
Words start as more
End like words

Si ce daca...

Marea se agita
Privind inmarmurita -
Se-ndreapta cu-nclestare
In vesnica uitare;

Luna tremuranda
In a marii oglinda -
Priveste-ndurerata
De mult nedezmierdata;

Soarele se ascunde
Tradat de-ale lui unde -
Purtate-n zari de vant
Din ceruri spre pamant;

Vantul se razbuna
Pe vesnica-i osanda -
Al lumii calator
Departe de-al lui dor;

Iarna invrajbeste
Focul ce mocneste,
Plapanda palpaiala
Asteptarea-nseala;

Iubirea se destrama
Far’a baga de seama -
Din rasarit inspre apus
O flacara s-a dus…

Tacerea e amara
Cand seara se coboara -
O stea mi se iveste
S-adanc viata priveste.

Abyss

Returning to world
After long hibernation
An abyss between

Clownery

A skillful clown
One has to become
To rival clowns

Change

One holds in palm
A butterfly
One has become

Flight

Life passes by
In an arrow’s flight
Frozen in place

Fast-forward

From love to hate
Just a single step
Thousand steps back

On a treasure hunt
I found a lofty fortress
Warm lights from afar

Anchored in verses
For my own’s mind sanity
Insanity speaks

Fragile roses
Have nurtured their thorns
To thrill deeper

She looked through me
Like awaken from a dream
Myself a window

Left in the dark
Each glim’s a blessing
Touching darkness

Two ice scrapers
Pet an old engine
Warm morning frost

Winter’s cold fires
Frozen desires
Melt into frost

Warmth

Long icy night
Still felt in my bones
Warmly thoughts sprung

Acceptance

Smiling at the moon
All worries gone with the clouds
On a starry night

Loss

The time we’ve lost
Hoping for love
Is never lost

Silence

The music stopped
With the sunrise
Peaceful moments

Wish

A rose’s perfume
Invites one’s senses
To wish even more

Flow

Between breathes
The big river flows
Into ocean

Hide-and-seek

The moon hides itself
From a lover’s eyes
Golden naked truth

Restless

In silence
The voice within
Chatty bird

Awaken
From a long dream
In seconds

Quest

Searching for her
In the restless crowd
I found myself

Awaking

Five more minutes
My sleep wasn’t that sweet
The whole past night

Torture

Departing steps
On the wood flooring
Cold water drops

Murkiness

Senseless in bed
The eyes look afar
No rays of light

Patter

Words fall on paper
Like raindrops in summer days
One’s emptiness sounds

Spring-Cleaning

In the old temple
Dusty corners need cleaning
Sweeping the ground floor

Fantasy

A face in the crowd
Stirred a storm in a tea cup
Till cup spilled-over

Itches

One’s heart itches
For an ounce of love
Scattered feelings
