since I was a little child.
With my first breath, I heard your call,
and began to look for you, Blessed One.

three Haiku - Elis Juliana

In the school of life
there's no student who does not
want a vacation.

Lament of Iaroslavna - Pavlo Tychyna

(I)
Snow. Light flurries falling
on the Prince’s palace.
Around it day and night
walks a tiny voice crying:
      —Prince, my dearest Prince,
      are you beyond the Danube?
