Reva Kern Poems

The hammock sways ever so slowly
In the gentle breeze
Of a hot summer afternoon
As I, lost in reverie, gaze up
...

Two hearts tossed
Into a vast valley -
Waiting on a hilltop
For clouds to appear
...

Little crystal dewdrop
Trembling daughter of the morning,
On the tip of a leaf of thyme
What are you doing on the hill?
...

I also sketch
See the spring season
In the fields
...

My soul has the naïvety of a glittering entity
Of a snow in February
Ah!We return to the threshold of childhood
On a pathway toward prayer
...

Holding onto your reflection
Captivates my mind
Gripping it with my body
Slowly, sinking down into
...

Envelopes arrive from
Foreign lands
Carrying letters once held
By other hands
...

When chased out, without returning to the ancient temples,
twisted by the fiery wind that blew from Thabor
The grand Olympians were so miserable
That the grandchildren pulled their golden beards.
...

Always within myself I keep a profound sadness
The etched friendship of an adorable child
For whom her death sounded the fatal ivory horn
Because she was beautiful, and gracious and blonde
...

Concealed in my raincoat,
I walk in cozy abandon
Through mist and rain
With my hands dug deeply
...

Qui possède ces bois, je pense que je sais
Sa maison est dans le village bien que
Il ne me verra pas m'arrêter ici
Regarder ses bois se remplir de neige.
...

These faithful birds teach me
How to consider loyalty
The drake, as a faithful partner, lives a good life
I am moody and fickle
...

The wind, like a ghost
Whispers -
The shadow of the dead
Walks out of life
...

In the pavilion
Painting elegant villa -
In water pavilion
To brew tea -
...

Je pense que je ne verrais jamais
Un poème charmant comme un arbre.

Un arbre dont la bouche affamée se plaquait
...

俳句 〜3

風 に 乗る
...

Creo que nunca veré
Un poema tan encantador como un árbol.

Un árbol cuya boca hambrienta está apretado
...

Don't worry -
That fear is
An instant reflex -
Relax
...

夏末
晚上 很热
难 入睡
窗 户 是 敞开

The Best Poem Of Reva Kern

The Visitor

The hammock sways ever so slowly
In the gentle breeze
Of a hot summer afternoon
As I, lost in reverie, gaze up
At the bright blue patches of sky
Intermingled with the lacy leaves
Of the towering camphor trees
Whose branches arch over me
In a protective embrace,
And all the while, wistful dreams
Flit in and out of my mind
When -
With a whir of wings,
A scrub jay lands at my feet
On the wooden slat of the hammock
Casting an inquisitive eye,
He hops closer still,
Looking for company, I suppose,
Then off he flies without so much
As an adieu
To fetch a drink from the fountain
And then, he is gone -
Leaving a sense of solitude in his
Stead.
