Haiku #10: サイレント・サイレン

Happy Easter! It’s not a holiday I celebrate, but I find the symbols of birth during it to be timely for spring. Much like the hearts and roses for Valentine’s Day, this scene with pastel colors, eggs, chicks, and rabbits come from business marketing the holiday, but isn’t it a nice thing to see on a walk around the neighborhood? It lightens my mood.

Silent Siren

音無子

海の近くに

声綺麗

Otonashi ko

Umi no chikaku ni

Koe kirei

The silent lass who

lives near the seaside has

a beautiful voice
