laatste vlinder











de wind waait
een gele blaadje
of de laatste vlinder?

    Hi there Sunshine,

    I almost got it, most of the words translate roughly to German. As the pronounciations are similar, the haiku has a nice ring to my ear as well as a pleasant image.

    Rainbows,

    ~RJ~

    Only you would write something like this, and leave me scratching my head. I wasn't even close... sort of.

    Mari-
    A beautiful image you have captured here, the true haijin
    finds a moment and tells us about it so that we see something
    and find a meaning... wonderful haiku...h

    gele vlinders
    van een tak vallen
    als de lente

    Babelfish and me:

    wind blows a yellow leaf
    or is it the last butterfly?

    This will do well with that huge Dutch speaking audience here on AllPoetry.

    Maybe the tiny English speaking membership will get a translation?

      Very close! Hey, this is a good way to people get to know some words in a different language

        How do you say, "The butterfly is on fire?"

        Babelfish: DE wind waait een gele blaadje van DE laatste vlinder?

          de vlinder is in vuur (vlammen)

          DE wind waait een gele blaadje van DE laatste vlinder?

          The wind blows an yellow leaf of the last butterfly

            Maybe my butterfly had leaves.

            Fire is a beautiful word in English or Dutch.
