Bilingual Haiku--By--Chen-ou Liu--Canada

wolf moon
a stranger's smell
on her body

狼月
陌生人的氣味
在她身上
_____________

cherry blossom rain
her fragrance lingers
in my mind

櫻花雨
她的香味徘徊
在我的腦海裡
_____________

those three words
then silence ...
a gap in the clouds

那三個字
然後一陣沉默 ...
雲層中出現破口
_____________

a dragonfly pauses
between sunshine  and shade
to stay or to go

蜻蜓停頓
在陽光和陰影之間
要留下或離開
_____________

drift of a leaf ...
the end
of my shift work

漂泊的一片葉子 ...
我的輪班工作
已結束
_____________
