visiting the battle fields a summer thunderstorm

failed haiku

in Stein gemeißelt

und doch

das weiche Moos

*****

carved in stone

and yet

the softness of moss

foreign war

secured at his backpack

a toy soldier

Under the Basho

Rosenknospen

die Narbe von damals

fast verheilt

*****

rosebuds

the old scar

barely healed
