We go on to publish our winners. These are the awarded poems at Romanian Kukai contest for June 2007. The theme of the contest was cherry.

First place

Slit of light
between two cherries –
the sunrise


Cristina Rusu


Second place


A crushed cherry
through the high grass –
soul, why don’t you cry?

Anghel Pop

Cherries almost ripe –
looking through the lattices
sad child’s sight

Valeria Tamaş


Third place

Butterflies dancing
around the clay hovel
bitter cherries

Loredana Florentina Dănilă

Through the broken fence
an abandoned house
and the dry cherry tree

Ion Untaru
