„Mii de trandafiri

pe marginea drumului

unul zâmbeşte.”

”Curățenia de primăvară” mi-a amintit de un email de la regretatul AshiAkira:

Hello Erika,

I thank you so much for reading my haiku poems. Nothing more pleases when someone reads what I write, especially people like you living thousands of miles away.

Thank you for translating it into Romanian. I can only imagine the sound of it, but I find it very rhythmical.

I have more accesses to my blog from Romania than any other country only except for the US. There must be something close to each other between our two countries culturally or spiritually.

Have a great week end yourself as well.

I see one that smiles.)
