Tanka, Women's right

Painting by Jose Roosevelt

I’m as old as the
World, as the suffering of
Every woman.

I’m as young as the hope that
Darkness can never turn off.

A knight

Tanka

We play all the day
In the garden, in the wood.
He is my best friend.

He is the knight who defends
My days, my night and my life.

Lac

Painting Edward Cucuel

Près du lac, je rêve
Aux poèmes d’autrefois, à
Tes mots magiques,

Qui me prenaient par la main
Vers un ciel sans lendemain.

Rose

Haïku, Rose

Retour au chalet,
Dans le jardin à la rose
Rilke me guide.

Life, Tanka

Painting by Steve Hanks

I fly with the wind
I am free, nobody can
Put me in chains.

I come and go in this world,
I have broken all the chains.
