Haiku About Pearls and Pearl Divers

Haiku About Pearls and Pearl Divers

in old-archaic- and poetical language

written by: Paweł Markiewicz

 

I

weird of afterglow
pearler singing song of moon
breaks sea-solitude

II

matutinal sun
keel swimming to new island
laden with the pearls

III

under summer moon
a pearl in dreamy gull’s beak
marine wizardry

IV

when the tide is out
pearl diver is fetching pearls
from sunken vessel

V

the morning red sky
the pearl diver on board ship
singing ferrymen’s ayres

ayre = Br. archaic = lay

VI

seaweed under sea
with the most propitious pearls
hidden by seaman
