| The Tale of Tails (haibun) It was a beautiful sunny day, though still cold. Immersed in the great book, I went for my daily walk later than usual. That's the time for all neighborhood dogs to go out with their humans. Here is one such couple, never met them before. The beagle was eager to make friends, so I stopped and introduced myself. Bella-the-beagle, and Karen-her-human were very nice and happy to talk, and so we did for some time. It always amazes me how easy it is to learn the whole life stories of two persons on the very first meeting in just a few minutes! As I did now, and many times before... And every time I walk away with a much better outlook on life. As if a dog's pure and simple nature and sincere interest somehow injects hope in me. first spring days -- the sun worshipers jump and wag their tails | |

| Hortensia Anderson special Memorial edition.
Dear fellow haijin! This is XIV bilingual Calico Cat haiku contest -- a unique and original contest in the haiku world since 2004. This time, it is dedicated to the memory of Hortensia Anderson (June 24, 1959 – May 21, 2012). She was a very talented and beautiful person who left this world too early. You may read her works on her web sites: https://andersonpoetry.com/index.php , https://hortensiaanderson-ekphrasis-1.blogspot.com/ , https://hortensiaanderson-ekphrasis-2.blogspot.com/ Anyone may participate in this contest by sending up to three unpublished haiku on the theme of my new sumi painting -- I named it "Moment of Eternity" (Sphinx and Shooting Star). Submit up to three haiku here in the LJ, right below this announcement, in the comments section. This contest is a blitz, hence you only have two days and two nights to submit. Your haiku should appear in the comments section of this LJ post no later than Saturday (June 2), before midnight EST (New York time). I will translate all the haiku, and place them here in a new post (the link will be posted here) for you to comment and discuss. Then, after about two days of discussion, I will announce the results. The First Prize winner will receive this painting: the original sumi-e on a rice paper, app. size 9 x 15 inches (23 x 38 cm). The Second and Third prize winners will also receive original sumi-e (of a smaller size) as prizes! Since all haiku will be translated in English and Russian both ways, you can read every haiku! The winning haiku will be also translated into Japanese! You are all welcome to discuss and comment on the haiku, when I post them in both languages for discussion. The contest is not anonymous, since I conduct it singlehandedly -- please add your name and country to your submission. We enjoy this contest for the love of haiku, and the only thing that counts is the quality of your haiku, not a "name". We are all fellow haijin on the Haiku Way!
You may see previous contests by going to Calico Cat contest tag on the front page of this LJ. Our previous First prize winners were: Beverley George, Australia; Carlos Fleitas, Uruguay; Shanna Moore, Hawaii; Kirsty Karkow, USA; Valeria Simonova-Cecon, Italy; Kilmeny Niland, Australia and Petar Tchouhov, Bulgaria (tied); Robert Bauer, USA; Hana Nestieva, Israel; Bette Wappner, USA; Tanya Dikova, Israel; Beverley George, Australia; Darrell Lindsey, USA; Kyoko Shibata, Japan. It is summer here, but since shooting stars are kigo for autumn, the season in your haiku should be autumn (or, no season). Please write haiku on the theme "Moment of Eternity", using the painting as a source of images in your poem (one or more images from the painting must be present in haiku). Let us remember our beloved Hortensia, and enjoy the nature, and our friendly and unique haiku community! Please join us, and bring your friends! Spreading the word about contest is greatly appreciated. Good luck! ( SUMI-E, and in Russian...Collapse )~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Google Free translator | |
