ANNA MARIA DALL’OLIO



ANNA MARIA DALL’OLIO

HAIKUS

So suddenly it happened
dew down leaves rolled
such a sharp blade.


Di colpo cade
rugiada dalle foglie
lama sottile.












So suddenly it happened
blue bombs burst in the heart of May
blue rododendron.


E d’improvviso
maggio col cuor di bomba
il rododendro.














June is bloody now
nothing at late eventide
poppies burst at night.


Giugno di sangue:
i papaveri esplosi
e prima nulla.
