Elena Naskova

Haiku in Macedonian and English
Both versions by the author

 

the leaves turning early –
a new cross by the road

лисјата пожолтуват -
нов крст на патот

 

 
ripe moon –
my pale hands
in the berry bushes

зрела месечина –
моите бледи дланки
во малините

 

 
the birds
drunk on rowan berries –
Indian summer		 Птиците опиени
од плодовите на дрвјата
Циганско лето
