Butterfly Dream: Winter Soup Haiku by Pravat Kumar Padhy
English Original
winter soup --
I remember the way
my grandmother hums
Akita: The Land of Poetry, 2014
Pravat Kumar Padhy
Chinese Translation (Traditional)
冬天熱湯
我記得祖母哼吟
的樣子
Chinese Translation (Simplified)
冬天热汤
我记得祖母哼吟
的样子
L1 sets the scene while an emotional undercurrent runs
through Ls 2&3. A moment of happiness/satisfaction is keenly captured in
the heartwarming image of the speaker's grandmother's humming.
Emotionally and tonally speaking, it might be interesting to do a comparative reading of the following haiku:
pumpkin soup
tasting a spoonful
of sunset
