haiku

a weary war-god
set to guard sheep
for 11 months

March - the month of Mars, the Roman god of war - comes to an end. April - the month of "opening" the earth - takes over. An ancient Danish name for April is "Sheep-month", the month when sheep and cattle again was let out to grass. Another name was "Grass-month".

a fallen Manneken Pis
besides sacks of cement -
spring hesitates

en væltet Mannekin Pis
ved siden af cementsække -
foråret tøver

Spring

not with pipes and drums
but with chirps and sprouts -
spring comes marching

tanka

while holding my grandson
a Japanese mother
wanders through a town
washed off the earth
in search of her child

how powerless the words ...
