Oana Aurora
Boazu RO
seeding:
a flock of sea-gulls
whitening the land
walking home
in the yellow leaves carpet
the pallor of evening
sound of an
engine
before the flash of headlights:
liquid fog
a gust
of wind:
hammock full of leaves
out of the blue
afternoon napping—
curved into each other
old wooden spools
November forest—
in each tree
a different color
heavy rain:
footmarks on the pavement
concentric circles
mid-morning sun—
fog unraveling
roll by roll
autumn cleaning:
in the spider’s web
just lint
drop by drop
loosing identity—
full pail under the eaves
up in the
trees
crows getting even darker:
early dusk
faster
than the sweeper’s broom:
falling leaves
left chimney
little stork getting pinker:
early sunrise
About
Oana Aurora Boazu, RO
My name is
Oana Aurora Boazu and I'm from Romania. I was
born in Craiova, but for the last three years I have
been living in Galati, where I work in a Dutch company,
member of the Damen Shipyards Group. Although I have
been writing haiku for many years, since 2000, only
recently I started taking part in competitions and
contests and won the Third Price in the International
Haiku Contest "One Thousand Cranes", Iasi, Romania,
2008, a honorable mention in the 8th International Haiku
Contest, Ludbreg, Croatia, 2009 and got published in
Frogpond Journal, Winter Edition 2009, Volume
32, No. 4, released in March 2010. I write
contemporary haiku as well as modern haiku.
