Whisky Haiku Poem by Chen-ou Liu

her face
in my whisky
the moon floats


Grand Prix, The Klostar Ivanic Haiku Contest (In English 2010)


Croatian translation by Marinko Spanovic

njeno lice
u mom viskiju
plovi mjesec


English Translation of the judge's comment:

I would like to put down some thoughts about the haiku which I gave the Grand Prix. This haiku is very formative and dimensional; one can build the WHOLE WORLD upon it. One can read it and listen to it from all sides and experience it in countless ways without using up any of the TRUE BEAUTY AND LOVE...
