Today is the third anniversary of my beloved friend Carla’s death.
These lines were written in her memory…
Una triade di miei componimenti, dedicati alla memoria della mia amata amica Carla R., è ospitata sulla rivista americana Failed Haiku (Feb. 1, 2017) edita da Michael Rehling.

Sequence for Carla
smiling picture –
time has stopped
on your gravestone
pouring rain –
overflowing silence
between us
fallen leaf –
how quickly the world
forgets
~
Sequenza per Carla
sorriso in foto –
il tempo si è fermato
sul tuo sepolcro
scrosci di pioggia –
il silenzio straripa
tra noi due
foglia caduta –
in tutta fretta il mondo
ti dimentica
